First Receivers – No Notice MCI Events – ONLINE

...These events require a mindset change from typical emergency responses...

I decided to take this class because I am a forward-deployed medic, working in the only clinic on-site, and we have a high probability of experiencing a mass casualty event. Though we train for this weekly, it has always seemed as though we don't move efficiently through our patient load and never quite understood why.

Now, after viewing this course, I now understand that these events require a mindset change from typical emergency responses. I am now better prepared to go to my seniors and advocate for changes, as well as better train my juniors. Thank you for yet another exceptional class.

...Practical learning tools that can be taken directly to the clinical care setting

Having just completed this website’s Complete TC2 course, I found this course to be an excellent summary/review of the key concepts of TCCC/TECC with the important addition of how these skills can be applied to a community mass casualty event. Dr. Shertz is an excellent instructor and provides practical learning tools that can be taken directly to the clinical care setting.

A fantastic addition to the TCCC/TECC curriculum provided by Crisis Medicine

The First Receiver course is a fantastic addition to the TCCC/TECC curriculum provided by Crisis Medicine. The course material provides a unique look at the critical transition point from prehospital to emergency room care in a mass casualty incident.

The course material is extremely valuable for physicians and advanced practice providers who work in hospitals. As a physician, I appreciated the lessons not only on treatment, but also the logistical and practical considerations on handling an overwhelming number of patients with limited resources. The information provided is data driven, and the lessons are scalable from small community hospitals to large academic medical centers.

This course also provides valuable training for military providers, particularly those in role 1 and 2 medical treatment facilities operating in an austere environment.
