Hawk Mountain Ranger School - The Medic Program

The Medic Program

As a dedicated spin off of the Ranger Program, a Hawk Mountain is also home to the CAP Ranger's Field Medic program. This program is designed to further prepare Rangers in the areas of advanced wilderness medical care. Field Medic trainees learn not only how to care for members of their team by ensuring proper sanitation and hygiene, but also about trauma assessment and mass casualty triage procedures.

Famous quotes containing the word program:

    The last public hanging in the State took place in 1835 on Prince Hill.... On the fatal day, the victim, a man named Watkins, peering through the iron bars of his cell, and seeing the townfolk scurrying to the place of execution, is said to have remarked, ‘Why is everyone running? Nothing can happen until I get there.’
    —Administration for the State of Con, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
