WELCOME TO NCTMA.NET
HOME OF THE NORTH CAROLINA TACTICAL
MEDICAL ASSOCIATION
 NCTMA's
mission
is to support and
advance tactical medicine throughout North Carolina and the
surrounding areas. Providers of tactical medicine include EMS
personnel providing medical support to the tactical teams of local,
state, and federal law enforcement agencies, military special
forces medics. Private and community college-based training
organizations, and businesses that manufacture and market necessary
medical and tactical gear are also essential to the endeavor.

TCCC Curriculum on the PHTLS Web Site.
Per CAPT Frank Butler, Chairman of the Committee
on Tactical Combat Casualty Care, the revised TCCC Curriculum as
updated on 4 February 2009 has now been posted onto the Prehospital
Trauma Life Support website. The URL is:
http://www.naemt.org/education/PHTLS/TCCC.aspx
. The posted material includes an Introduction, 5
Powerpoint Presentations, 10 Training Videos, 5 Instructor Guides, 8
Skill Sheets, and 2 Practical Exercise Evaluation Sheets.
Several notes on the material:
1) Some of the files are large and will take a while to download;
2) The Powerpoints are in Office 2007;
3) The training videos are embedded in the Powerpoints - they will
need to be in the same folder to play when clicked during the
presentation;
4) The Powerpoints are designed to be Read-Only, so click on that
option to open them.
