Why law enforcement officers should be trained emergency medical responders

Imagine you are a law enforcement officer first on scene of a mass shooting, or a choking child, or another officer or civilian has been critically injured and needs immediate attention. Are you up to the task? Is it even something you have been trained to handle?
In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, sponsored by Lexipol, host Jim Dudley speaks with Eric Thomas O'Neal about adding yet another dimension to today's law enforcement officer, that of a trained emergency medical responder.
