St Augustine Members Ready to Protect the Flock!

This particular blog post St Augustine Members Ready to Protect the Flock! was formerly written and published on: ICSAVE.org

Since 1999, there have been over 1850 deadly force incidents take place throughout our faith-based communities. On Saturday, December 29th, 25 congregation members from St Augustine Cathedral received the knowledge, skills and abilities to better survive an active shooter event. Conducted by Integrated Community Solutions to Active Violence Events (ICSAVE) and the Arizona Church Security Network (ACSN), ALICE (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) is a set of proactive, options-based strategies, that increase church members’ chances of survival and bridge the gap between the time a violent event begins and law enforcement arrives. These participants learned and experienced the decisive advantages of proactive vs. passive response strategies via numerous live scenario drills and are now empowered to help save lives!

Licensed Nursing Assistants Our Newest Immediate Responders!

This article Licensed Nursing Assistants Our Newest Immediate Responders! was formerly shared on: www.icsave.org

Pima County residents now have 20 more trained and certified immediate responders among their ranks! On Friday, December 15th, these exceptional young women from the county’s Joint Technical Education District’s (JTED) Licensed Nursing Assistant Program, completed the necessary educational requirements to obtain American College of Surgeon’s Bleeding Control Certification. Civilians need basic training in Bleeding Control principles so they can provide immediate, frontline aid until first responders can take over care of an injured person. Due to many situations, there may be a delay between the time of injury and the time a first responder is on the scene. Without civilian intervention in these circumstances, preventable deaths may occur. Although no single set of skills or response can fit all injury, trauma, or active violence situations, making sure everyone knows his or her options and can react decisively will save valuable time and lives. As members of our extended community family, these young professionals now have the knowledge, skills, and abilities to help save a life!

Sierra Vista Rescue Task Force Active Violence Response Training

This piece of writing: Sierra Vista Rescue Task Force Active Violence Response Training was initially seen on the ICSAVE.org blog

On December 15th and 16th, numerous public safety representatives from throughout Southern Arizona conducted 16 hours of intense active violence response training. The purpose of the Rescue Task Force Course is to deconstruct the nature of these evolving threats as well as offer awareness-level integrated point-of-wound care instruction specifically focused on dynamic active violence, all-hazards and/or explosive threats. Day 2’s activities were the culmination of several hours of didactic, practical skills and real-world scenarios’ based training, focusing on the practical application of the 3 phases of Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) and ensuring that all participants had the knowledge, skills and abilities to implement these lifesaving skills under stressful conditions. Active violence events have resulted in numerous civilian casualties and captured the attention of the nation. These horrific and calculated acts have dramatically impacted countless individuals and communities by instilling fear that such events can unpredictably occur in urban, suburban, rural and metropolitan areas. Despite evolving threats, many public safety organizations throughout the country have yet to develop response paradigms to meet these challenges.

This course is specifically targeted for law enforcement and fire / EMS organizations who want to proactively develop integrated response strategies to mitigate the impact a violent mass casualty incident can have on their community. This workshop is recognized by both the Arizona Center for Fire Service Excellence (AzCFSE) and Arizona Peace Officers Standards and Training (AZPOST) Committees.
