#controlthechaos

Little things like this make my ocd heart happy. I have noticed over the years that my #OCD flares up when I'm stressed. Which makes sense -- I have a dozen things right now that I can't fix or manage or solve. But I CAN bring order to cupboards, organize drawers, colorize books. I bought a pile of cheap plastic organizers from #DollarTree - this sage green color wasn't my first choice (and I may still spray pain them all?) but it was the only color that had lots of sizes available. I hadn't measured or planned ahead. I just happened to be out earlier this week, I've had the worst chronic illness flare in years - and impulsively decided: I will reorganize all the things. I feel like trash. But my laundry cupboards LOOK less like trash now. And that's... something, right? ;) Right. Swipe to see the overflowing mess it was. Amazing how a few pretty storage boxes can bring chaos under control. Anyone else an #ocdclean type? I need things symmetrical, in groups of 3's, colorized, etc. My brain gets itchy when they're not. #ocdawareness #chronicallyawesome #chronicillnesslife #chronicillness #chronicallyill #autoimmunedisease #flareup #organizedhome #controlthechaos #cleaningday #onestepatatime (at Terrace Heights, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoYvKU9rwHd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Police Officer Down™ (POD™) Survival Course teaches the essentials required to provide self-aid and buddy-aid with respect to the larger tactical situation. First Aid courses are designed for controlled or controllable environments but are not realistic and actually can be dangerous if their approaches are utilized in environments with a proactive intelligent threat. By dispelling some of the assumptions of first aid dogma and applying environment and situation appropriate actions as well as skills and equipment to tactical environments, this course teaches officers how to save their own life or the life of their partner when the violence is turned against them and they have become a casualty. The Police Officer Down™ (POD™) Survival Course covers the phases of Tactical Trauma Care™, hemorrhage control (including tourniquets and wound packing), basic airway management, and tactical rescue concepts among many other essential topics. The course content is delivered in an online setting and can be followed by practical skills development and evaluation components which are completed under the guidance of a course facilitator that has completed the Police Officer Down™ (POD™) Survival Facilitator Course. The POD™ Survival program is an ~8 hour online course. http://ctoms.ca/Mission-Essential-Training_3/POD-Survival/ Looking for more: Check out the wide array of Tactical and Non- tactical programs offered by CTOMS™ http://ctoms.ca/Mission-Essential-Training_3/ For more information please visit our website or give us a call at: http://ctoms.ca/Mission-Essential-Information/Contact-Us/ Toll Free: 1-888-832-7096 Tel: 1-780-469-6106 Fax: 780-469-6156 #CTOMS #TCCC #TECC #military #lawenforcement #specialoperations #SAR #paramedic #FirstAid #policeofficerdownsurvival #PODS #onlinetraining #tacticaltraumacare #tacmed #tacticalmedicine #tacticalmedic #controlfreak #controlthechaos #leavenothingtochance

We are simulating a uncontrolled arterial bleed from the arm during the Direct Threat care Phase. Having done this now I realize how much pressure is required to actually stop the distal pulse, it's painful and a bit challenging to get the last turn out of the windless. It really opens your eyes and makes you realize how important getting the practice repetitions in is. It's a great course for anyone looking learn about tactical trauma care at a great price!
