Get Trained
Once of the services we provide as part of our community services and capacity building is training in this Stop the Bleed program.
We generally focus on teaching those on the 'front lines' who are more likely to encounter such incidents and calls for service but this training is not limited to First Responders. [SEE HERE national-stop-the-bleed-day.html LINK]
For that reason, We do tend to teach Police, Fire Fighters, Medical Responders, Military, etc more than other groups.
