Description
The environment that we live, work, travel, and train in can be an inherently dangerous one depending on where it takes us. As self-protectors, those training regularly, carrying regularly, and taking on the combat mindset, you need to make sure that your training and gear addresses the environment accordingly.
This four-hour class is geared toward the novice with little to no prior medical experience who wants to become more comfortable and prepared. If you already have a basic med-kit or tourniquet, but have no experience in what happens when you need it, this is geared toward you. If you have no kit, no experience, and are looking for direction, then this class is also geared toward you.
If you already have a medical kit that you want to ask about or go through, bring it along, but it is not required to participate. You will not be asked to use any of your equipment during this class, we have training devices and equipment so you can keep your kit in-service!
There is no range time with this class, no firearms or ammo are needed. We will be in the classroom.
