According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), traumatic injury is one of the leading causes of death for people under 50 years of age in the United States. A large portion of those deaths are from severe bleeding – the most treatable cause of death due to trauma.
Our Health & Safety Institute´s / American Safety & Health Institute’s Stop Life-Threatening Bleeding course is designed to provide detailed information on the control of severe external bleeding, including the use of direct pressure, commercial pressure bandages, tourniquets and packed dressings.
Our HSI®/ASHI® Stop Life-Threatening Bleeding course is designed for groups and individuals who have a greater than average chance of witnessing an injury event in which heavy bleeding occurs and professional medical care is not readily available or is overwhelmed, such as in law enforcement, private security, workplace emergency response team personnel and personnel at large events, campuses or large occupied buildings. | Duration: 2 hours.
