PPA-International still have two slots available for our TTLS course which
runs from the 04 to 05 October 2008. The price is EUR450.- which include
accommodation and manuals.

This two days Tactical Trauma Life Support (TTLS) course. This is
internationally recognized course which is based on the Advanced Trauma
Life Support (ATLS) course for physicians and follows the protocols
developed by the TTLS Committee.

TTLS courses provide a pre-hospital trauma care philosophy, stressing the
need to treat the multi system trauma patient as a unique entity with
specific needs. This may require an approach to the trauma patient that
varies from traditional treatment modalities.

This course is a must for anyone who works in a place where you might be
dealing with multi trauma patients. Needless to say, this course is
especially useful for Close Protection/PSD operatives who could be dealing
with multi trauma in their line of work. If you are interested in making
yourself more attractive to the CP employment industry, this course would
certainly be an asset to have on your CV.
