10:45 AM – 12:15 PM
In our Active Shooter Response course, we show how to develop, refine, and produce successful Rescue Task Force teams by integrating Fire and Emergency Medical Services into tactical operations. By bridging the gap, we bring together all Agencies as 1 Team, 1 Fight. Students will learn tactics and concepts to prepare for Active Shooter Incidents & Acts of Violence. We use lessons learned from our Military and apply them to the civilian world of Tactical Medicine.
