The tactical environment is not for the faint of heart or ill-prepared. Training in tactical medicine is crucial for a number of reasons. It can, first and foremost, save lives. Prompt and competent medical care might make the difference between life and death in high-risk scenarios. Tactical medical training can assist in ensuring that victims of injuries or wounds receive prompt and effective care by empowering medical practitioners with the knowledge and abilities to provide appropriate medical care. Goat-Trail Austere Medical Solutions (GAMS), Tactical Austere Medical Practitioner (TAM-P) Urban & Austere Programs combine tactics with trauma care, emergency medicine, Basic Life Support, and Advanced Life Support and involve simulations and practical exercises to prepare learners for real-world situations. The TAM-P Urban Program is designed for EMS, fire, law enforcement, and first responders and the TAM-P Austere Program is design for the military, federal agencies, and contractors who operate in high-risk and high-stress, circumstances. Our company motto says it all, “Real World Medicine for Real World Situations.” Tactical medicine is a lifesaving mission, but it can also increase the effectiveness of the entire mission. Medical emergencies can interfere with operations and jeopardize staff safety in high-risk environments. Tactical medical training helps preserve operational preparedness by teaching people to deal with medical situations. Any organization that operates in high-risk situations should make an investment in tactical medical training. Tactical medical training can contribute to the saving of lives, the success of missions, and the general safety and well-being of personnel by empowering people with the information and abilities necessary to respond to tactical medical situations.
