Individual price £975.00*

Duration: 3 days

Designed for individuals, pairs or even larger teams, the course offers a unique educational, psychological and physical challenge that you are unlikely to find anywhere else.

Over the last 20 years, the ATACC course has become well established as a leading advanced-level trauma course, approved by the Royal College of Surgeons, London.

ATACC PHEM has been developed for those who want the same lectures and theory but with a key focus on all the pre-hospital elements of the original course. In-hospital elements, from the resus room handover, are removed to allow as much time for pre-hospital educational scenarios.

The course is ideal for both those looking to become PHEM providers or highly experienced individuals or teams wishing to extend or consolidate their knowledge. ATACC PHEM offers far more than simply a good life support course, it is a high-level educational experience, that develops leadership, coping strategies and team building for Prehospital Emergency Medicine providers, through a combination of ramped intensity, stress inoculation and constructive feedback.

ATACC PHEM training has been attended by air ambulance crews, specialist paramedic teams, BASICS doctors, Search & Rescue and military medics.

We continuously improve and update our educational materials. The lectures are delivered in a fresh and engaging ‘TED style’ format, with conference-like seamless presentations.

Skill stations and simulated scenarios are progressively more clinically challenging building knowledge and developing team skills, CRM and coping mechanisms.
