Product Overview
Where the CERS-Individual equips a responder to protect and treat themselves and a single buddy, the CERS-Rescue steps up to the medic role: a single responder carrying supplies and evacuation capability for up to four casualties. The Critical Event Rescue Kit inside the Signature Series Med-Pack contains four complete tourniquet/bandage/NPA sets organized by TacMed's adjustable internal panel system — enabling rapid, consistent item access regardless of stress level. Four Rescue Orange SOF® Tourniquets allow immediate visual identification for casualty marking, a practice embedded in TCCC doctrine.
The HALO Vented Chest Seals address the second most common mechanism of preventable combat death — tension pneumothorax from penetrating chest wounds. Four NPAs address airway obstruction. The inclusion of a Foxtrot® DA Litter is a deliberate design choice: the Foxtrot stores compactly on the med-pack exterior in a ready-to-deploy configuration, enabling a single rescuer to begin casualty movement without waiting for additional personnel to bring evacuation equipment to the point of injury.
Personal protection is provided by the same TacMed™ Responder Plate Carrier with NIJ Level IIIA soft armor as the Individual system, plus the Universal Tourniquet Dispenser with two additional SOF® Tourniquets for self-care access. The Rescue package was designed for the medic-level responder on an RTF team — the individual whose primary mission is patient treatment rather than threat interdiction, and who needs the most comprehensive medical load-out available within a single-operator carry system.
For individual responder configuration, see the TacMed™ CERS – Individual. For supplemental chest and thoracic supplies, tourniquets, and full ballistic protection options, browse the MED-TAC catalog.
