Stop The Bleed Training

Welcome! Stop the Bleed, a national program developed by trauma experts, is designed to teach people simple techniques to stop life-threatening bleeding. A one-hour presentation is followed by hands-on practice packing wounds and applying tourniquets. The presentation includes a 10-minute video on surviving an active shooter situation. While active shooter situations are on everyone’s mind these days, you are more likely to use these life-saving skills because of accidents in your home, on a hiking/camping trip, or on the highway. We encourage anyone of high-school age and up to sign up. Some images on the slides and the video are graphic, so we ask that no younger children accompany you to the class. The Lake City Emergency Communication Hub was awarded a Department of Neighborhoods grant to offer these FREE classes. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at LCStopsTheBleed@gmail.com.
