Extrication is a skillset that is truly un-fake-able. There are no defensive operations or spraying through windows. The skills to free heavily trapped patients QUICKLY in their worst time do not come from books or a weekend a year in the junkyard learning age old tactics. The bottom line is the victim will either come out quickly and efficiently, or they won’t and that is up to you. Tactical Extrication is based 100% on the real-world accident scene and how we can apply what we have learned over the last twenty years. We teach the why’s so you can troubleshoot challenging scenarios on the fly. The most common complaint we hear when teaching this program nationally is that generic junkyard training isn’t preparing students for the “real world” and we agree. Commonly, many base extrication techniques are misunderstood or outdated. This program hones in on the steps you can take to quickly and efficiently free heavily trapped patients on the real accident scene.

Experience matters. Don’t blame your tools. It’s on you. Do you have what it takes when seconds count?
