MED100 ACTIVE SHOOTER/STOP THE BLEED

Stop the Bleed is a national measure to raise awareness and encourage bystanders to act. A person can die from blood loss within five minutes. Many lives could be saved if onlookers were more equipped for multiple casualty events like terrorist attacks, earthquakes, and mass shootings. This course will include basic bleeding control techniques like tourniquet application, direct pressure, and wound packing.
