FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS AND FIRST RESPONDERS

Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) is a set of guidelines and principles for providing medical care for trauma in high threat or dynamic environments. It is a near direct correlation on the  proven success of the (military) Tactical Combat Casualty Care recognising that trauma is ‘agnostic’. It has various civilian relevant  terminology, response and process explanations specific to domestic frameworks. 

TECC aims to minimize preventable deaths and reduce morbidity by providing care that is practical, effective, and relevant to the tactical, high risk or dynamic setting.

TECC is divided into 2 levels of skill (providers)  suited to their role and environment;

1. TECC- First Responder (TECC-FR) The basic skills for any role to stop massive bleeding, provide and manage  an airway, treat chest trauma, recognise head injury and prevent hypothermia. 

2.TECC (Provider) is the advanced application for medics, paramedics and other clinicians to prepare them to operate forward of the ‘Green/ Evacuation Zone’ typical of where normal Ambulance operations will be positioned.

Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) is a baseline expectation for any person employed, either paid or volunteer, as a professional first responder. 

It is the penultimate standardised  medical  preparation for emergency services, industrial Emergency Response Teams (ERT),  Emergency Service Officers (ESOs), Security Officers/Guards, Corrections Officers (COs) or any occupation issued a firearm to conduct their role.
