PHASES OF TCCC

1) Care Under Fire

2) Tactical Field Care

3) Tactical Evacuation Care

 casualty are still under effective fire

– Point of injury

– On the “X”


• Risk of additional casualties is extremely high


• The best medicine is fire superiority


• Self Aid/Buddy Aid

– Is the casualty conscious?

– Can the casualty return fire?

– Can the casualty move to you?


• Tourniquets for life-threatening extremity
