Great video. We chatted before but good to reinforce ‘training, training and more training’. The best kit in the world is not going to help a poorly trained responder / medic. Another resource to check and they also produce probably some of the best kits I’ve seen is Remote Medical, based I think out of Seattle. They run courses throughout the country. I like the wilderness courses for the simple reason that you cannot carry the ‘kitchen sink’ when you’re out. It forces you to improvise and this is what I like. I’ve seen people completely at a loss what to use if they’re not carrying eg a NAR chest seal; when you show them a plastic bag and duct tape, the light goes on 😀.
Yes! I follow remote medical and they have some good info and training. I agree that wilderness medicine is a great way to get into “practical” medicine for someone that is not looking for a career in a specific field.
Love this video! Scrolling through YT and seen it and clicked on it. I’ve done the TECC, STB and obviously the BLS/ CPR. Did the 8th edition of PHTLS. Next month, I’ll be renewing my PHTLS with the 10th edition. I work in security and sometimes, depending on sites and locations, it can be handy at times to have advanced skills than just basic first aid and CPR. So the NAR has an EMR courses that are legit and accredited? I’m going to look into that. I buy a lot of my equipment from them. Thank you!
Before you start giving negative information about the American Red Cross courses you might want to do a little research. For starters the classes are designed for the average person with very little or no knowledge of emergency procedures. They keep it simple so people can remember what to do. With their new curriculum that was released in December 2021 the offer a stop the bleed course to participants who want/need it as well as how to administer narcan(naloxone) and other skills. Their wilderness first aid class was developed with assistance from the Boys Scouts. As far a CPR goes, Several years ago the U.S. Military adopted the Red Cross's BLS and ALS curriculums for the medical schools as well as using the Red Cross basic first aid program to train personnel in basic life-saving skills.
@LoneScout Both the AHA and the ARC follow the same ICLOR/ECC guide lines. In other words they use the same research!! If the AHA is the gold standard how come the US Military's medical programs switched exclusively to the ARC's BLS/ALS programs a few years ago?
@LoneScout No problem...About 4-5 years ago the US Military medical schools switched to the ARC's BLS and ALS programs..They also started using the ARC's layperson cpr/first aid programs to train military personnel in basic life-saving skills. The first aid program does not take the place of combat life-saver courses or any major trauma training.
That TCCC Handbook is a bit outdated. Everything TCCC related can be found on Deployed Medicine. They also have a TH-cam channel. Instagram has a lot of great content, I’m biased because that’s where I post.
Im very interested sir and I know some Health care providers do also cause, some of us cant travel to the US for actual hands on face to face trainning, I hope we can still enhance and learn via means of distance learning using Internet or via online
Hey what books for home study!! Where there’s no doctor is a great book, made for third world countries and no help from ems !!! Love to read and if it stops books keep reading. Save many,life long caregiver:))))))
@LoneScout Also, Red Cross does have a course similar to BLS (First Responder) but its not a substitution for medical professionals that need to be certified.
With the way things are headed in America, I'm sure this video will save a few hundred lives. Thank you for the work you put into these videos.
Sure thing! Glad they are helping people out!

Not hating. Just recognizing that AHA is more widely accepted especially in professional healthcare.

Good point. And the Deployed Medicine site will be updated as the protocols are updated in the future as well.
@@SixEcho yeah, we update it as the guideline updates come out. Plus, it seems like there is always new content on there.
P.s. love your work:))
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback.
I am a medical student do you have any free video resources.?like and extensive course covering the basics
Do you recommend Skinnymedic?
Absolutely. Forgot to add him in the video but he has good information on his channel for sure. Solid medic skills from what I have seen. @skinnymedic
Do you offer online classes??
Not currently. We are currently working on producing online courses though. Is that something you would be interested in?

@@Samurai3541 awesome. Thanks for the feedback. It will be a little while still until we get it all out together but it is in the works. Stay safe!

Wilderness EMS by Seth Hawkins and Emergency War Surgery are two good ones for sure.
When it comes to medical facilities, most will only accept AHA.
Yup, its the industry standard for sure.
AHA is more geared towards medical professionals. While American Red Cross is more for non-medical people.
@LoneScout I don't assume. I am an instructor for both and I work in the medical field. A lot of Healthcare jobs only accept AHA certifications.
@LoneScout thats why I said if your in the medical field, its better to take AHA and get certified with AHA, not the Red Cross.
@LoneScout Yes. AHA does have classes for non-medical people (Lay rescuer). But most of their classes are more for people in the medical field.
@LoneScout Also, Red Cross does have a course similar to BLS (First Responder) but its not a substitution for medical professionals that need to be certified.
