TECC for Law Enforcement (TECC-LE) Course
Course Description:
Equip yourself with the life-saving medical skills essential for surviving and responding effectively during active threat and high-risk operational scenarios. The Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) course, recognized by the Committee for TECC (C-TECC), provides Law Enforcement Officers with the critical interventions needed to manage life-threatening injuries at the point of wounding, often before EMS can safely access the scene.
Adapted from the military's proven Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) guidelines, TECC focuses on the specific needs and operational realities faced by civilian first responders in tactical environments. Led by instructors with extensive backgrounds in both tactical medicine and real-world emergency response, this course prioritizes immediate, actionable skills that make a difference when seconds count.
Key Learning Objectives and Skills:
Understand the TECC principles and phases of care tailored for LEOs: Direct Threat Care (care under fire), Indirect Threat Care (threat suppressed but scene not secure), and Evacuation Care.
Master rapid identification and control of life-threatening external hemorrhage using tourniquets (self-application and buddy-aid) and basic wound packing techniques.
Learn basic airway assessment and management maneuvers suitable for tactical situations.
Recognize and manage penetrating chest trauma using occlusive dressings (chest seals).
Understand strategies for preventing hypothermia in trauma casualties.
Practice casualty movement techniques for extracting victims from threat areas.
Develop situational awareness for rendering aid while maintaining tactical advantage.
Understand effective integration and communication with arriving EMS/Fire personnel.
Apply TECC principles through realistic, scenario-based training simulating active threat incidents relevant to law enforcement operations.
Course Format:
This intensive course emphasizes hands-on skills development and decision-making under stress. It includes didactic sessions, skills stations, and immersive, high-fidelity scenarios designed specifically for law enforcement personnel. Course content adheres strictly to the current C-TECC guidelines for First Responders with a Duty to Act (LEO focus).
Target Audience:
