**SCENARIO SUNDAY**

YOU’RE 4 MILES FROM THE TRAILHEAD. WHAT NOW?

Your hiking partner slips on wet rock.

They have severe ankle pain, swelling is increasing and they can’t comfortably bear weight.

It’s 4:30 PM.

Sunset is approaching.

Cell service is unreliable.

Temperatures will drop after dark.

**What is your next move?**

A. Help them walk out immediately
B. Splint the injury and evaluate your evacuation options
C. Leave them and hike out for help
D. Wait until morning before doing anything

👇 Drop your answer in the comments.

Then ask yourself the bigger question:

**Would you actually know what to do if this happened today?**

That’s why we train.

**SURVIVAL SATURDAY — THE 10 ESSENTIALS**

A SHORT HIKE CAN BECOME A LONG NIGHT.

You weren’t planning to spend the night outside.

Neither were most people who unexpectedly find themselves stranded.

Before heading into the backcountry, think about:

• Navigation
• Light
• Fire
• Shelter
• Water
• Food
• First aid
• Sun protection
• Appropriate clothing
• Emergency communication

Preparedness isn’t paranoia.

It’s giving yourself options when the original plan falls apart.

**Be prepared to stay longer than you planned.**

**Labor Day Weekend is here — enjoy it, but make safety part of the plan.**

Whether you’re grilling out, heading to the lake, traveling, or spending time with family and friends, a little preparation goes a long way.

This weekend, remember to:
• **Hydrate and beat the heat**
• **Never drink and drive**
• **Keep a first aid kit nearby**
• **Use caution around grills, fire pits, and open flames**
• **Stay alert around water and children**

Have fun, make memories, and most importantly—**make it home safe.**

**FIRST AID FRIDAY — BLISTERS**

SMALL INJURY. BIG PROBLEM.

A blister seems minor—until you’re several miles from your vehicle.

Left untreated, a hotspot can become:
🔥 A painful blister
🔥 A change in walking mechanics
🔥 A slower group
🔥 A potential wound
🔥 An evacuation problem

The best treatment?

**Catch it early.**

When you feel a hotspot developing, stop and address it before it becomes an injury.

In the wilderness, seemingly small problems have a habit of becoming big problems.

FREE PILOT CLASS FOR EDUCATORS

**SCHOOL SAFETY CAN’T BEGIN AFTER THE EMERGENCY STARTS.**

Yesterday, a gunman forced his way into Westwood Hills Elementary School in Waynesboro, Virginia, while school was in session.

A staff member was shot and wounded. Thankfully, no students were physically injured. The school immediately went into lockdown, and law enforcement responded within minutes.

It is another reminder of something educators across the country never wanted to have to think about:

**What would you do if it happened at your school?**

Teachers and school staff are educators first. They should never have to be police officers, tactical operators, or emergency responders.

But during the first critical moments of an emergency, they may be the adults standing between a classroom full of children and a rapidly developing threat.

**Training matters. Preparation matters. Having a plan matters.**

TacMed1 Training Group’s **Active Shooter Program for Educators** is designed to help teachers, administrators, and school staff better understand how to recognize danger, make critical decisions under stress, and respond during the moments when every second counts.

The goal isn't to create fear.

**The goal is to replace fear and uncertainty with knowledge, preparation, and action.**

Schools practice fire drills.

Schools practice severe-weather drills.

We should also prepare educators for the emergencies we hope they never experience.

🏫 School Administrators
🍎 Teachers & Educators
🎓 Private & Charter Schools
⛪ Churches & Youth Programs

**Bring the TacMed1 Active Shooter Program for Educators to your organization.**

I'M OFFERING A FREE INSERVICE TO Woodland Heights Middle School and Woodland Heights Middle School STAFF TO HELP OUR LOCAL LAW ENFORCMENT AND FIRST RESPONDERS.

**TRAINING THURSDAY — SPLINTING**

YOU DON’T NEED A PERFECT SPLINT.
YOU NEED AN EFFECTIVE ONE.

In wilderness medicine, your splint may need to remain in place for hours.

The goal is simple:

**Protect the injury and prevent further damage.**

A good splint should:
• Stabilize the injury
• Limit unnecessary movement
• Be padded when possible
• Maintain circulation
• Be reassessed regularly

And sometimes your best splint isn’t something from a medical kit.

Trekking poles, clothing, sleeping pads and other equipment may become part of your solution.

Improvisation is a wilderness medical skill.

**GEAR REVIEW WEDNESDAY — THE WILDERNESS IFAK**

WHAT’S ACTUALLY IN YOUR TRAIL MED KIT?

A good wilderness medical kit should help you handle the problems you’re most likely to encounter—not just look impressive in your backpack.

Consider carrying:
• Tourniquet
• Pressure dressing
• Hemostatic gauze
• Rolled gauze
• Medical tape
• Elastic wrap
• Blister care
• SAM-style splint
• Trauma shears
• Gloves
• Emergency blanket
• Basic wound-care supplies

But remember:

**Equipment doesn’t replace training.**

The best medical kit in the world is useless if you don’t know when or how to use it.

**TIPS TUESDAY — ANKLE INJURIES*

A ROLLED ANKLE CAN BECOME AN EVACUATION.

You’re three miles from the trailhead and someone goes down with an ankle injury.

Can they walk?

Should they walk?

Before moving:
• Check circulation, sensation and movement
• Look for deformity and significant swelling
• Compare the injured side to the uninjured side
• Stabilize the injury
• Reassess after splinting
• Decide whether walking out is actually safe

The injury is only part of the problem.

Distance, terrain, weather and daylight now become part of your medical decision.

That’s what makes **Wilderness First Aid different.**

**MEDIC MONDAY — BLEEDING IN THE BACKCOUNTRY**

WHEN HELP IS MILES AWAY, BLEEDING CAN’T WAIT.

A serious cut on the trail can turn into a major emergency fast.

In the backcountry, you may need to control bleeding long before professional help reaches you.

Know the priorities:
• Apply direct pressure
• Pack deep wounds when appropriate
• Use a pressure dressing
• Apply a tourniquet for life-threatening extremity bleeding
• Keep the patient warm
• Start planning your evacuation early

Wilderness medicine isn’t about carrying a giant medical bag.

It’s about knowing how to use what you have.

🎯 Learn the skills before you need them.

👁️ Patient safety starts with a prepared team. ❤️

A big thank you to the Vision Center of Lake Norman for taking a proactive approach to the safety of both their patients and staff and Winston (K9) by completing CPR & AED certification training with TacMed1 Training Group.

Medical emergencies can happen anywhere—even during a routine appointment. Having employees who are trained, confident, and ready to respond can make a critical difference in those first few minutes before EMS arrives.

By investing in lifesaving training, the team at Vision Center of Lake Norman is showing their patients that safety goes beyond excellent eye care—it means being prepared when it matters most.

We’re proud to work with organizations that make emergency preparedness a priority.
