• 173-Practical Prolonged Casualty Care

  This week, Aebhric is joined by Bill Vasios and Rhod Jordan, who recorded during the November 2025 CoROM Conversations. They discuss Practical Prolonged Casualty Care, a PDF from the US Military University, designed to equip lay responders with foundational skills for managing casualties over extended periods. The speakers underscore the critical role of clear communication, the value of structured training for non-medical personnel, and the practical relevance of the book’s guidance in real-world scenarios. They highlight the importance of engaging patients actively in their own care, as well as the inherent challenges associated with preparing laypersons for such responsibilities. Considerations of cultural context and the necessity of a collaborative, team-based approach to patient management are also brought to the forefront.TakeawaysThe book is designed for laypeople to understand basic medical care.Effective communication is crucial in patient care.Training non-medical personnel can enhance patient outcomes.Involving patients in their own care is beneficial.Cultural considerations play a significant role in patient care.The book provides practical techniques for prolonged casualty care.Regular assessment and monitoring are essential for patient safety.Lay responders should be trained to recognise nonverbal cues of discomfort.The importance of maintaining a regular routine for patients is emphasised.Cross-training team members can improve overall care.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Prolonged Casualty Care02:50 Deep Dive into the Book's Content06:04 Engaging Laypersons in Medical Care08:55 Communication and Patient Interaction11:37 Training Non-Medical Personnel14:49 Practical Applications and Techniques17:51 Understanding Patient Needs20:39 Challenges in Training and Implementation23:28 Cultural Considerations in Patient Care26:16 Conclusion and Future Directionshttps://www.usuhs.edu/sites/default/files/2025-09/Layperson%27s_Guide_to_Prolonged_Casualty_Care_090825_ACC.pdf
