Medical Trauma Kits/Training
Tactical Medical Solutions
Years ago, the term first responder only applied to law enforcement officers, fire rescue personnel,
and emergency medical professionals. Recent events have shown us that the term first responder also
includes bystanders, involved participants, and concerned citizens who happen to be present. Here at
TacMed™ Solutions, we understand that being an untrained provider doesn't diminish the first responder's
willingness to help those in need. TacMed™ brings proven life-saving medical gear and instructions together
so that anyone can become a first responder.
