When a serious injury happens, every second counts.
Our STOP THE BLEED® course helps your team take calm, life-saving action before emergency responders arrive. Designed for real-world situations and taught by instructors certified by the American College of Surgeons, your team will leave with skills they can actually use.
STOP THE BLEED® is a national initiative led by the U.S. Department of Defense that prepares everyday people to act quickly in a bleeding emergency. Whether at work, on a job site, or in the community, uncontrolled bleeding is the number one cause of preventable death from trauma. In just 45 minute, you’ll gain the skills and knowledge to stabilize and control severe bleeding until medical help arrives.
