A fantastic week welcoming medics from across the @BritishArmy @RoyalNavy and @RoyalAirForce for combined CPD focused on rescue trauma, casualty care and Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC).
Using immersive simulation and realistic scenarios, the week supported military medics in developing skills for their work in civilian settings as paramedics.
What a great bunch - full of enthusiasm, energy and professionalism, and a true credit to the Armed Forces community.
A huge thank you to our instructors, who brought a wealth of military medic experience to support and challenge the candidates throughout the week.

So far this week, we have welcomed teachers from Mawdesley St Peter’s Primary School for a Paediatric First Aid course, as well as students and teachers from Parklands High School for a Stop the Bleed course.
We hope everyone enjoyed their time with us and left feeling confident in the valuable, life-saving skills they learned - skills that could make a real difference should they ever need to use them.
We’re proud to offer sessions like these free of charge for local schools, helping more people access essential training and supporting our mission of inspiring a generation.
A huge thank you to both groups for joining us👏

🔴SPEAR - DAY 1🔴
Today marked the launch of our brand new 3-day ATACC SPEAR course 🚀
This programme goes beyond current ALS - diving deep into physiologically guided resuscitation and pushing clinical thinking to the next level.
Day 1 set the foundation:
From understanding the physiology of cardiac arrest to optimising ventilation, chest compressions, and defibrillation. Plus a deep dive into the 2025 Resuscitation Guidelines and the evidence behind them.
Our teams hit the ground running with the ‘Repeat’ scenario - building teamwork, confidence, and kit familiarisation - before progressing through a series of scenarios reinforcing the morning’s theory.
The afternoon introduces the anatomy and practical aspects of endovascular access for arterial monitoring and resuscitation. Followed by more immersive scenarios integrating advanced physiological monitoring with ALS skills.
A packed first day laying the groundwork for two more days of increasingly complex and challenging scenarios.

🔴SPEAR - DAY 2🔴
The complexity stepped up today with a deep dive into cardiac and cardiovascular physiology - focusing on what truly improves the chances of ROSC and positive neurological outcomes.
Morning scenarios pushed immersive simulation further, challenging teams to manage cardiac arrest through physiology-led decision making, monitoring, and targeted interventions.
In the afternoon, we made the most of the sunshine in our TAG outdoor space - exploring right heart & pulmonary physiology, plus aortic physiology, comparing full occlusion, partial occlusion, and adrenaline.
We wrapped up with four high-intensity scenarios: resus arrests, thrombolysis, REBOA, and prehospital cardiac arrest across varied aetiologies. The day ended with an al fresco EVTM REBOA masterclass from Halden 👏
The progression has been clear - teams are becoming sharper, more coordinated, and increasingly confident from fundamentals through to advanced endovascular techniques. Their CRM and leadership gets better by the hour…but as complexity increases, so does the challenge of managing and positioning kit and equipment in a logical way - there’s still plenty to learn, and tomorrow will bring more cardiac arrests and even more special circumstances.
Another incredible day of learning, great weather, and Danny’s elite BBQ skills 🍖
Day 3 - more arrests, more complexity, more learning - lets go!

Well that’s a wrap and what a fantastic 3 days of advanced cardiac resuscitation with some amazing people from around the world!
We started this morning with a summary version of ‘Resuscitator’ to see what our delegates would do, after several days of cutting edge research, evidence and practice, together with a paired final practice of ultrasound guided needle techniques.
Then we were back onto more scenarios with challenging clinical cases such as complex overdose and unstable post-ROSC critical care, while outside the situations and scenarios became even more challenging but every step of the way the candidates upped their game and delivered.
Today was about fine tuning and mastery of skills before the final afternoon of practical REBOA scenarios and the essentials of ECPR.
It has been a truly whirlwind 3 days, but for anyone who wants to take their resuscitation to the next level and to mix with like minded people to discuss the latest principles, research and practice then SPEAR is for you. If this sounds like a step too far ‘Beyond ALS’ then join us on an ARREST course, optimising your ALS as a stepping stone to SPEAR.

Huge thanks to the whole team at The ATACC group and all the expert Faculty members - Mark, Halden, John, Adam, Anders & Jonny 👏
Last but not least - a special thanks to @OrtusTechUK - we couldn't have done this without your incredible support and kit!

🚨 National Update in Police Medical Guidance🚨
The NPCC National Guidance which defines the minimum learning content and delivery standards for Planning for First Aid and Pre-Hospital Care in Policing has been released.
This marks a significant step forward in standardising and strengthening medical provision across UK policing.
At The ATACC Group, we are delighted to announce that our Tactical Medicine Pathway - comprising:
▪️ Tactical Medical Planning
▪️ Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC)
…not only meets the national guidance but EXCEEDS it.
✅ This provides assurance that our training is aligned with - and goes beyond - NPCC expectations
✅ It reinforces our commitment to delivering high-quality, operationally relevant education
✅ It ensures officers are equipped with the knowledge and decision-making skills required in high-risk environments
💡 What this means for Police Forces:
Forces can now confidently enrol officers onto the Tactical Medicine Pathway, knowing it is fully compliant with NPCC standards and supports best practice in operational medical planning and care.

Another outstanding week of training at ATACC Group.
We’ve just completed our Tactical Medical Planning Course, followed immediately by our CBRNE Medical Response Course - a powerful combination that bridges strategy, planning, and operational delivery.
Our Tactical Medical Planning framework continues to prove its value. It provides a structured, practical approach to developing medical support plans that are adaptable, threat-informed, and operationally grounded. Delegates leave with a clear methodology they can take back to their organisations - enhancing capability, governance, and real-world readiness.
Taking that foundation straight into our CBRNE Medical Response Course allows participants to apply planning principles in high-fidelity, immersive simulation. This course is specifically designed to complement existing organisational CBRNE training by introducing complex, realistic scenarios rooted in criminality and terrorism within the civilian environment.
This is training for reality.
Beyond the core foundations of CBRNE response, we focus heavily on:
• Decision making under pressure
• Critical thinking in dynamic environments
• Tactical awareness and threat-informed practice
• Multi-agency interoperability
• Leadership in uncertainty
Our approach ensures clinicians and operational teams are not just technically competent - but operationally capable.
Thank you to all the professionals who trained with us this week. The standard was exceptional.
