Line Items: USAF In-Place Patient Decontamination Training (IPPD) This course is specifically designed to educate Air Force First Receivers on life saving skills required to triage, initiate field treatment, decontaminate and save victims from Chemical, Biological, Radiological/Nuclear (CBRN), or Hazardous Materials in the medical warm-zone. This is primarily a "hands-on" course based upon the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 3249-08N-2005 Best Practices for Hospital-Based First Receivers Guidelines; and certifies students in all requirements for OSHA's Hazardous Waste Operations course to the "Operations" level. Students will be introduced to potential contaminants terrorists may use; ways to identify contaminants using basic detection equipment, signs/symptoms of agents; triage of victims in PPE; decontaminants necessary to remove contaminants; and most importantly how to effectively decontaminate patients. *This course involves one day of equipment set up, inventory and functions check (using 5 members from the Unit); a second day of didactic lecture (all students should be present); and a third day of "hands-on" team work training to include a final "timed" exercise where students must work as a team decontaminating mock casualties from a terrorist attack using a weapon of mass destruction. The exercise is designed to tie together all lessons learned throughout the course. During hands-on training, students will use the equipment the medical facility has on hand for managing contaminated casualties. The instructors are certified equipment technicians and can make field repairs to equipment if necessary. This course is not for the weak of heart; not only are the slides graphic, but students must don protective equipment that is usually hot and uncomfortable while performing physically rigorous medical warm-zone operations. Due to the intense hands-on nature of this class and the intricacies of the equipment, this course requires a low student to instructor ratio. Dates of Training: 55th Medical Group prefers training to be scheduled during the weeks of 10 September through 30 September 2010.
