Tactical Lifesaver - (4-Hour Course)
October Special - FREE Hat

The primary goal of the Tactical Lifesaver course is to improve the survivability of accidental and non-accidental life-threatening injuries encountered by law enforcement and corrections officers, with a secondary goal of decreasing liability for the officer's department. The course is not designed to turn officers into medics, but rather teach the time-critical skills that may permit survival long enough for victims to obtain definitive medical care.

Optional Accessories

Blowout Kit - For an additional charge, The Backup will be providing a convenient, life-saving blowout kit packed with the necessary medical gear to assist you in treating any immediate injuries that demand your attention. The easy-to-carry pouch can be placed in your vest or pocket and carried with you at all times. More Info
