baseline Medical preparedness
b.m.p.

A foundational, non-tactical based course introducing the essentials of medical preparedness when help isn’t coming.

​

Baseline Medical Preparedness is an introductory, awareness-level course designed for individuals who want to build a practical understanding of medical readiness in situations where professional medical care is unavailable or significantly delayed. Rather than focusing on advanced or tactical medical procedures, this course provides a structured starting point to help participants identify what medical challenges to expect, what supplies to have, and what skills to develop further.

This one-day, lecture-based course is ideal for those new to medical preparedness who want to build confidence in their ability to handle common but serious medical issues during a disaster, long-term grid-down event, or remote emergency.

​

Objective

Through a combination of lectures, interactive discussions, and practical demonstrations, participants will gain:

• Patient Assessment & Vital Signs – How to recognize early warning signs of worsening conditions.

• Stockpiling & Managing Medications – What prescriptions and over-the-counter (OTC) medications to have on hand.

• Wound Care & Infection Prevention – How to clean, dress, and monitor wounds to reduce infection risk.

• Dehydration & Shock Management – How to recognize and prevent two of the most avoidable causes of death in survival scenarios.

• Medical Kits & Supplies – How to build a functional medical kit tailored to personal needs.

By the end of this course, participants will have a clear roadmap for improving their medical preparedness, knowing what they can do, what they can’t do, and what next steps to take in their journey toward medical self-sufficiency.

 

Methodology

Baseline Medical Preparedness follows an interactive, structured approach to ensure participants not only understand key medical preparedness concepts but also feel confident in applying them. This course blends:

• Lecture-Based Instruction – Focused discussions on essential medical preparedness topics.

• Scenario-Based Learning – Real-world examples of medical situations where professional help is not available.

• Demonstrations & Hands-On Learning – Practical exposure to basic patient assessment, wound care, and medical kit organization.

• Group Discussions & Q&A – Open discussions to reinforce learning and clarify key points.

This course is not designed to provide certification or hands-on medical proficiency, but instead serves as an essential first step toward medical preparedness.

 

Expected Outcomes

Upon completion of Baseline Medical Preparedness, participants will:

• Understand the realities of medical care when professional help is unavailable.

• Know how to take basic vital signs and recognize early warning signs of medical emergencies.

• Learn how to stockpile and manage prescription and OTC medications responsibly.

• Recognize and prevent life-threatening dehydration and shock.

• Manage wounds, prevent infection, and identify early signs of sepsis.

• Understand sanitation and hygiene needs in a grid-down setting.

• Build a practical medical kit with essential supplies for self-reliance.

• Have a clear action plan for what further medical skills and training to pursue.

 

Next Steps

Baseline Medical Preparedness is a starting point for medical readiness, not an advanced medical training course. Participants will leave with a realistic understanding of medical preparedness, the ability to make informed decisions, and a clear direction on what to learn next to become more self-sufficient in medical emergencies.
