Combat Life Saver
I'd say less than an EMT but better than what most people know.
Much Better because your training came with mental toughness. Put most sheeple in a high stress environment and even what training they do have goes out the window.
Don't sell yourself or your training short. :)
Combat Life Saver certified. It is good for immediate care for trauma but you'll still need a doctor obviously.
You learn application of tourniquets, IV's, treat for shock, pressure dressing, chest seal, needle chest decompression, splint, disembowlement, evaluate a casualty, etc.

Registered Nurse, military trading for field and combat surgery. Member of forward surgical team for ten years, also the commander for a few years. Deployed several times with sf units. Currently work as operating room nurse.
Have taught field medical tasks and been an instructor for Expert Field Medial Badge.
I am a emergency responder at work. Im first aid, CPR and AED certified through the Red Cross. I also train with the local fire department once a year in fire fighting and emergency rescue drills.
Glancing over the one thread I would discourage anyone attending a on-line course for Emergency Medical Services of any kind.
Only a hands on training will give you the needed training for helping others.
Contact your local fire department or Ambulance service and they can point you in the right direction.
I am currently a active Paramedic located in western PA. I have been a active medic for just over 16 years. I currently work in Harmony and Petrolia ( both small to moderately active call volume).
Totally impressed with the list of training.... Im combat first aide trained in the military but that's its coupled with alot of experience in the field.. Scheduled to take the NCOLS wilderness first responder course later in the year.... Have all the right gear.
This is definitely a skill set our group is lacking......
