DESCRIPTION:Course Objectives\: This course teaches the Rescue Task Fo
 rce concept\, which is a major change in doctrine for EMS providers an
 d firefighters to Active Shooter situations. The rescue task force bri

 isting with the evacuation of victims and the establishment of casualt
 y collection points. Target Audience\: EMS providers\, local and regio
