Event Details

Norman Regional’s EMSSTAT, the emergency medicine service (EMS) for Norman and Moore, is now an approved National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT) Training Facility.

NAEMT is the only national association representing the professional interests of paramedics, advanced emergency medical technicians, emergency medical technicians, emergency medical responders and other professionals providing prehospital and out-of-hospital emergent, urgent or preventive medical care.

EMSSTAT is offering a two-part session of the 2nd edition of NAEMT's Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) course. This course is designed to teach EMS practitioners and other prehospital providers how to respond to and care for patients in a civilian tactical environment, arming them with real life solutions to common situations they may encounter.

Join EMSSTAT and Tactical Education & Medical Solutions, LLC for a two-day TECC training designed for paramedics, EMTs, firefighters and other public safety partners.
