STOP the Bleed
What stops bleeding? In our STOP THE BLEED® course, you’ll learn three important techniques to help save a life before someone bleeds out which can happen in 3-5 minutes: (1) How to use your hands to apply pressure to a wound; (2) How to pack a wound to control bleeding; (3) How to correctly apply a tourniquet. These three techniques will empower you to assist in an emergency and potentially save a life. Join us for our next STOP the Bleed Class on Saturday, September 16, 2023 at 10am. The class will be located at TruPrep in Marietta.
