Critical Wound Care. Each day, there are emergencies. Have you been affected by a personal emergency? Perhaps, a close relative? Or a perfect stranger?
May is National Stop the Bleed Month.Thursday, May 23 is National Stop the Bleed Day. In acknowledgement of this event, we are conducting a session on Critical Wound Care. You will be guided on how to approach a victim with severe bleeding, what to do first and how to potentially save their life.
We ask you to bring a sharpie/pen, triangle bandage, roll of gauze, non-latex gloves and plastic sandwich bag (empty) if you can. We will have some supplies on hand as well.
