A person who is bleeding can die from blood loss within three minutes.
It's the leading cause of preventable death in multiple casualty events, like mass shootings, terrorist attacks and earthquakes.
Emergency responders will arrive as quickly as possible, but bystanders are almost always there first.
In the case of disaster and high casualty incidents, emergency services are often spread thin.
Stop the Bleed is a nationwide campaign to empower bystanders to act quickly and save lives.
The class will provide you with the skills and knowledge to provide immediate bleeding control to victims at the scene of an accident or event.
