First responders from Florida participate in a live-fire training exercise that teaches first responders, including police officers, firefighters, emergency medical technicians and other public safety responders, the basic medical care interventions that will help save an injured responder’s life until EMS personnel can safely enter the tactical scene at OK Gun Corral Club, Okeechobee, Fla., Jan. 30, 2016. Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) teaches the combat lifesaver how to provide immediate care that can save a casualty’s life, such as stopping severe bleeding, administering intravenous fluids to control shock and performing needle chest decompression for a casualty with tension pneumothorax. TCCC introduces evidence-based, life-saving techniques and strategies for providing the best trauma care on the battlefield. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Tracy McKithern/Released)
