Prolonged Field care Podcast 145: Tactical Timeout

Welcome back to the PFC podcast! Today, it's Dennis here with Casper and Paul. We're discussing a leadership tool called the Tactical Timeout, which helps teams ensure everyone is on the same page. Casper, a NATO Special Operations combat medic, gives a shout-out to the timeout used in the medical community, ensuring correct procedures. Using the Tactical Timeout, they discuss the tactical situation, security, and evacuation plans, ensuring efficient shift changes and patient updates. It fosters cohesion, especially with non-medical personnel. Dennis emphasizes the importance of contingency planning and clear communication, while Paul urges junior medical team members to ask questions to avoid confusion.
