Research Pillar

The SOM+C Research Pillar is dedicated to research and development that directly supports the SOF Medic. Research includes the collection of data to improve prehospital medicine, studies which SOM+C will publish, support for SOF Medics to produce their own research and articles through our partnerships, and research on the newest technology and equipment to help improve prehospital medicine and support the SOF Medic. All of these efforts have the same goal, to assist the SOF Medics of the community in enhancing their skills and efficiency.

The Training Pillar operates as a focal point for training specially designed to improve and sustain the SOF Medic’s knowledge and skills.

Our role within the coalition is:

To provide high-quality training scenarios, articles, and discussions on crucial skills, knowledge, and mindset required for the SOF Medic.

Prepare the SOF Medic to proactively engage the additional complications imposed upon them by the dynamic, volatile, and uncertain environment in which they operate.

Provide the SOF Medic with guidance on means to verify the efficacy of both their own training and the training they provide others.

Outline necessary skills and training methodology to train Non-Medics in crucial life-saving skills.

Share tips, tricks, and life hacks to improvise and improve training aids to allow SOF Medics to effectively and affordably train themselves and others.

Gather data and identify information gaps to feed back to the Research Pillar in an effort to continue the “infinity loop” and synergistic relationship between Evidence Based Medicine and Environment Based Medicine.

Serve as a hub for lessons learned, vignettes, and discussions on the multitude of problem sets that plague the SOF Medic.
