Empowering People to save Lives
For many years organisations have relied on the attendance of the ambulance service in the event of a serious accident or major illness at work. Whilst awaiting the arrival of the ambulance, traditionally
trained first aid providers have worked hard to keep them
alive, often without the necessary skills and equipment.
With the 2013 deregulation of first aid provision, an
ageing workforce and ambulance services under more
pressure than ever, organisations must ensure they have
the right people with the right skills and equipment at
the right time should the unthinkable happen.
Work at height, below ground, at sea or in a remote
or hostile environment, BTACC can be delivered with
your location in mind and thus ensures your personnel
are trained to a high standard in an environment they
are likely to find themselves in.
BTACC does not rely on mannequins but uses
experienced live actors as casualties. They bleed,
scream, faint and even fight back, just as an injured
person would. We recreate real injuries using simulation.
You do not have to imagine a wound; you will see it,
feel it and deal with it.
Dealing with polytrauma (multiple traumatic injuries) may
seem beyond the scope of someone with no pre-hospital
knowledge or experience; it simply is not.
BTACC – Empowering People to Save Lives
BTACC has been saving lives for more than two decades and is well proven in emergency services and commercial industry within the UK and abroad. BTACC introduces the M.A.R.C.H approach to trauma
and casualty care with simple and systematic way of
dealing with a wide range life threatening, time critical
injuries.
Whilst first aid at work is suitable for low risk
organisations but based on there local risk assessment,
more and more require a higher level of training in order to
manage potential injuries and sustain life until the arrival
of the emergency services.
BTACC follows the M.A.R.C.H algorithm, guiding the
learner to firstly identify time critical injuries and then
signpost them to the appropriate intervention. With a
focus on the hands-on elements of trauma care together
with incredible casualty simulation, BTACC is not over
reliant on lectures and is the perfect balance of
theoretical and practical learning.
BTACC has been written by leading pre-hospital
doctors and proven over twenty years with a constant
review process based on evidence, developments in
practice and real world occurrence. The aim of BTACC
is to ensure all organisations are equipped with the skills
and knowledge to think, act and do with maximum
confidence when someone is injured in the workplace.
