When planning a shooting range business, you need to undergo TCCC training for safety. Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) are guidelines set by the United States military for prehospital combat medicine trauma life support to reduce preventable death while maintaining the operation's success.
The TCCC is developed by the Department of Defense Health Agency Joint Trauma System (DHA-JTS) to teach evidence-based, life-saving strategies and techniques for giving the best trauma care on the battlefield.
