MED-TAC Readiness Audit · MTC-RA-001
Tactical Medical Readiness Audit — Law Enforcement
A self-assessment for chiefs, sheriffs, and training officers. Scores where your agency actually stands on medical readiness before an incident, not after one — across doctrine, individual and team gear, training, interagency coordination, and operations. Thirty-six pages, six sections, one score out of twelve.

Download the audit (PDF)Who it's for. Chiefs, sheriffs, command staff, training officers, and tactical team leaders who want to move from "we have some stuff" to a deliberate, defensible medical readiness program — one that holds up in an after-action review or a use-of-force review.
Framework. Built on the doctrinal framework used by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (CoTCCC), the Committee for Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (C-TECC), and the Hartford Consensus — translated into the operational reality of a domestic law enforcement agency.
What the six sections cover
| # | Section | What it assesses |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Agency-Level Doctrine & Policy | Whether your agency has actually decided what it stands for on medical care and written it down — before gear, before training. |
| 2 | Individual Officer Gear | Whether what every officer carries is sufficient, standardized, accessible, and maintained — against the CoTCCC/TECC minimum, not opinion. |
| 3 | Team & Vehicle-Based Gear | Capacity beyond the individual IFAK — multi-casualty events, extended operations, what the car and the team carry. |
| 4 | Training & Sustainment | Whether your training infrastructure can produce, and keep producing, competent officers — skill decay is measurable within six months without practice. |
| 5 | Interagency Coordination | How well your agency operates inside the larger system — the Hartford Consensus and Rescue Task Force framework exist because uncoordinated agencies lose people in the seams. |
| 6 | Operations, Debrief & Improvement | Whether your agency learns from its own operations — every real incident and every failed evaluation is data. |
How the scoring works
Each of the first six sections is scored 0–2 against a maturity scale, for a total possible score out of 12:
- 0 — Absent. Not present. Never built, or lapsed beyond recovery without a dedicated rebuild.
- 1 — Informal. Some elements exist but are inconsistent, outdated, or unevenly applied. Would not survive scrutiny in current form.
- 2 — Defined. Formally established, documented, and consistently applied. Would survive scrutiny.
10–12 reads as a mature program. 6–9 means formalize and sustain what exists. 5 or below means build from doctrine up. Section 7 turns the score into a 30/60/90-day action plan — pick three to five gaps, assign each to a named owner, set a target date.
Free, no obligation. The audit is not tied to buying anything. If it surfaces gaps you want help costing, configuring, or sourcing against, that conversation is a separate step — the audit stands on its own either way.
