The More Things Change: TCCC, Tier 3, and Why Operative Experience Is Asking the Customer First
In this episode of “Between the Simulators”, Jake Rahman sits down with Lou Oberndorf, Chairman and CEO of Operative Experience Inc. (OEI), for an in-depth conversation on the future of combat medical training.
They discuss how TCCC (Tactical Combat Casualty Care) has become the global standard protocol, the growing worldwide demand for combat trauma training driven by ongoing conflicts, and OEI’s new TCCS Tier 3 Pro simulator — a high-fidelity, autonomous, and affordable system purpose-built to match official military requirements, available on a common platform for both male and female casualties.
The conversation also covers NATO’s role in aligning training standards across member nations, the challenges and opportunities of AI and VR in medical simulation, and OEI’s next major focus: Prolonged Casualty Care (PCC) — training medics to manage critically injured patients in austere environments for extended periods, across the full range of battlefield scenarios.
OEI Will Be at SESAM
OEI will be exhibiting at SESAM in Lyon the week of June 15th, where OEI’s PCCS Pro and TCCS Tier 3 Pro simulators will be demonstrated live as part of a mass casualty event.
