Planning Activities International School of Tactical Medicine Student Guide Rancho Mirage, California Tactical Medicine Module A Training Support Package Student Guide Tactical Medicine Module A - Introduction We are committed to ensure that you receive the most intense and up to date tactical medical training available. Our instruction technique is based on the building block approach to training with a proven track record of success. Our tactical instructors have many years of experience as tactical commanders and operators. All physician instructors are reserve law enforcement officers, active on tactical teams, and are residency trained in emergency medicine, trauma surgery and critical care medicine. The instructors are experts in their field with experience and knowledge unlike that found anywhere else. To ensure high quality training, ISTM complies with the California Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) and the California Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA) regulations and guidelines for continuing education for pre-hospital and law enforcement professionals. Finally, our faculty strictly adheres to current tactical law enforcement accepted standards and emergency medical care guidelines that conform to the civilian EMS system and the practice of emergency medicine. We promise you an outstanding academic training program that upon completion will enable you to effectively integrate with your tactical team as a tactical medical provider. We will make every effort to see that you get the most out of your 2 weeks of training and our instructors will work closely with you to help you reach your goals. It is our sincere hope that with this training you will be able to provide state of the art tactical medicine for your team and may perhaps one day save a life during a tactical operation. Lawrence E. Heiskell, M.D., FACEP, FAAFP Founder and Medical Director ISTM “It should be borne in mind that there is nothing more difficult to handle, more doubtful of success, and more dangerous to carry through than initiating changes... The innovator makes enemies of all those who prospered under the old order and only lukewarm support is forthcoming from those who would prosper under the new. Their support is lukewarm partly from fear of their adversaries, who have the existing laws on their side, and partly because men are generally incredulous, never really trusting new things unless they have tested them by experience.” Niccolò Machiavelli, 1514 Copyright Page i All Rights Reserved Tactical Medicine Module A Training Support Package Student Guide Disclaimer The ISTM does not guarantee that participants who attend or successfully complete the Tactical Medicine Course will be able to perform Basic or Advanced adult or pediatric life support in an actual emergency. Our role is to provide you, the student with the highest quality Tactical Medicine education available anywhere. Although our courses are designed to teach students how to perform in certain situations, the course does not guarantee that the participants will use this training appropriately in emergency medical or tactical situations outside the classroom. Law-enforcement tactical operations are an evolving craft and what is best today may or may not be the best tomorrow. Beyond this course, it is incumbent on the student to keep abreast of emergency medical and tactical options and issues. Finally, your tactical commander, department policies, county EMS protocols and your own skill level will be the ultimate determinant as to what techniques, tactics and treatment you will use in the field.

Copyright Page 1 All Rights Reserved Tactical Medicine Module A Training Support Package Student Guide Training You to Save Lives Despite the increasing nationwide awareness of the value of having an on-scene specialized medical team, the medical consequences of tactical operations are often overlooked or completely left out of the operational plan. Unfortunately, there are some law enforcement agencies that still deploy S.W.A.T. teams for high-risk warrant service and other operations with no further medical plan other than to call 911 if someone is shot or injured. In today's litigious world this practice is certain to come under close legal scrutiny by the courts. Civilian EMS Constraints During tactical operations involving a barricaded hostage or active-shooter situations, tactical commanders will often stage civilian EMS personnel remotely for their personal safety. The traditional EMS crew is reluctant to enter the scene because they are not convinced that the area is absolutely safe to enter, during
