Please provide any other comments or suggestions you have for improving this course.

The course was good for repitition of incidents. This course is good following the training received at the county level because more time was spent on the actual hands on tactics of our police officers including linking and down range contact teams. The only other challenge was the terminology used. For our county Medical has its own branch. Also triage is labeled Rescue Group Supervisor.

What other training is most important to you now that you have completed this course?

We will continue with training through our local aagency to affirm skills and knowledge from training.
