East Coast Tactical Medicine (TECC Connecticut) was founded with one primary objective, preparing civilians, first responders, and all the men and women who dedicate themselves to protecting and serving our general community, to provide safe, effective, and competent tactical medical care.

ECTM was envisioned in a bar, as most great ideas are. SWAT Doctor Scott Whyte and Army Warrant Officer Danny Devlin knew there was a gap between the military active shooter medical training and civilian disaster response medical training, and the two set out to fill that gap. Over the course of two years, the dynamic duo made a business plan and teamed up with St. Mary's Hospital to bring this plan to life. ECTM is now in the business of teaching vital life-saving techniques to all walks of life, including:

  • Civilians
    • Administrative Assistants
    • Businessmen/ Women
    • Entrepreneurs
    • Teachers
    • Students
  • Fire and Medical
    • Firefighters
    • Emergency Medical Responders
    • Emergency Medical Technicians
    • Paramedics
    • Nurses
    • Physicians Assistants
    • Physicians
  • Law Enforcement
    • Active and Veteran Military
    • Police Recruits and Cadets
    • Police Officers
    • State Troopers
    • SWAT Operators
The world has changed over the last 10 years and the occurrence of terror attacks has grown exponentially. Terror attacks are becoming common headlines in the news. The threat is no longer in a distant land, but in our home country and even in our home states. Recent examples include:

  • Las Vegas, NV Shooting
  • Charlottesville, VA Vehicle Assault
  • Orlando, FL Pulse Nightclub Shooting
  • San Bernardino,CA Shooting
  • Charleston, SC Church Shooting
  • Boston, MA Marathon Bombing
  • Sandy Hook, CT Shooting
Unfortunately, these examples are only a handful of the tragic incidents in our homeland since 2012.

At East Coast Tactical Medicine, we are experienced instructors that prepare everyday individuals, coming from all walks of life, for a tragic day we pray never comes. But if that day comes, our students will be more prepared and expertly trained to manage any challenge they may face.
