Who Should Take the Assessment and Treatment of Trauma Course

The Basic ATT course is geared toward the Emergency Medical Responder (First Responder) and Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-Basic), while the Advanced ATT Course is geared toward the Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (EMT-Intermediate), Paramedic, and other advanced life support providers.

The basic course is designed to cover basic trauma life support concepts from the basic life support provider's level of training (anatomy and physiology and the pathophysiology of injury), while the advanced course builds upon the basic trauma life support concepts and provides a more in-depth look into trauma and advanced management. Course Coordinators should determine which course (basic or advanced) is most appropriate for an individual.
