10. Medical and LE Branch

This video explains how span of control and unity of command work in an active shooter / mass‑casualty response, focusing on the law enforcement and medical branch directors. It shows how contact teams, rescue task forces, and transport units roll up under Tactical, Triage, and Transport supervisors, and how the law enforcement and medical branch directors co‑locate at the command post to coordinate resources, request additional support, consider treatment groups, integrate intel, and maintain a 25,000‑foot view beyond the hot/warm zones. The core message: when these branch directors work in lockstep, the response is faster, more organized, and far more effective at saving lives.
