What is the First Care Provider Program?
A proven model of success
ABOUT THE FIRST CARE PROVIDER PROGRAM
The First Care Provider model empowers community members to take life-saving actions. Data from across the globe demonstrates that training individuals empowers action and improves survival from medical and traumatic emergencies. Trained First Care Providers demonstrate a willingness to operate independently, are able to recognize critical injuries and can properly allocate resources for the maximal benefit of those involved.
First Care Provider training provides a targeted, yet comprehensive approach to address the major causes of potentially preventable death as detailed in the Committee for Tactical Emergency Casualty Care First Care Providers guidelines. External hemorrhage control is a critical skill for many traumatic type injuries, however, it is not a panacea. Recent events reveal that access to the wounded, recognition of significant injury, and rapid evacuation to medical care are at least equally as important as immediate hemorrhage control.
