Field Medical Training Battalion (FMTB) West DHA TCCC Practice Exam

What is essential at a CCP to facilitate casualty movement?

Access to evacuation routes No evacuation planned Evacuation only by air Evacuation by foot long distances

Correct Answer:

Access to evacuation routes

Explanation:

Access to evacuation routes is essential at a casualty collection point because it provides the clear, coordinated paths needed to move wounded beyond the CCP to higher medical care. These routes allow the team to use the fastest and safest transport available—whether ground vehicles, litter bearers, or evac helicopters—without causing bottlenecks or delays. Routes must be mapped, unobstructed, and synchronized with evacuation assets so that triage, initial care, and transport flow smoothly together. Without defined routes, casualties can back up at the CCP and vital care is delayed. While different terrains may require air, ground, or mixed movement, having reliable evacuation routes ensures flexibility and efficiency in getting patients to the next level of treatment.
