 While there are a number of diagnostic tools, medications, and devices that EMS providers have access to that are simply not available to non-professionals, the vast majority of the items that you’d find in the back of a typical ambulance or medic bag (and the tools that were discussed in Lessons One, Two and Three) are things that nonprofessionals can find online with just a few clicks (and I’ll share my favorite websites with you), or, even purchase at your local drugstore. To help you to prioritize your own purchases, I’m going to suggest what type of gear might be included in emergency first aid kits of three different sizes to fit three different needs, or, three different “missions.” I’ll wrap up this chapter with a few suggestions on where you can go from here.  Upon booking class on the date of the class we will send you a link to access.

 What Have We Learned About Mass-Shooters Online, opens with a look at the data in a way that has never been explored before. It begins with a high level summary of many of those data points, including key definitions, data trends of these events, a breakdown on where these events are occurring, and even a detailed look at police response time to these shootings. It also analyzes what factors affected the outcome at mass shootings. For example, after every mass shooting and in particular, after the Newtown shooting at Sandy Hook elementary, there was a deafening cry by gun control advocates to ban certain classes of firearms and to reduce the number of rounds that could be stored in magazines, driven by the belief that those changes would reduce the number of dead at mass shootings, or even eliminate them all together. In addition to understanding whether those arguments were right or wrong, It also analyzes whether these shooters really do gravitate toward gun-free zones; and, how the response of potential victims affected the outcome. it closes with a detailed analysis of the solutions being proposed by gun control advocates to determine whether the data indicated that those solutions would work, or not work. Topics explored include: -Mass shootings by the numbers. - Would reducing magazine capacity or banning AR-15s work? - Do gun-free zones help or hurt? - Does victim response make a difference? - What are universal background checks, and would they end mass shootings? - What about no fly lists and terror watch lists?  Upon booking class on the date of the class we will send you a link to access.
