SAVE A LIFE - Stop The Bleed Day
Thursday May 23

What would you do if you witness someone who walks through a glass door and incurs a large laceration, a severe cut to their arm?

What would you do if you witness an emergency and you are more than minutes away from help?

Since blood may be spurting, it is a life threat, it is better to learn now what to do rather than leaning on the spot. We will provide a free on-line videos that will prepare you.

No matter how rapid the arrival of professional emergency responders, bystanders will always be first on the scene. A person who is bleeding can die from blood loss within five minutes, therefore it is important to quickly stop the blood loss. Those nearest to someone with life threatening injuries are best positioned to provide first care.

The following poster (Fig.1.1) is a flowchart to follow depending on the severity of the situation. The video below is another resource.
Stop The Bleed Video

 
The following selection links to a page that has been prepared by The American College of Surgeons and www.bleedingcontrol.org. It includes videos on:
  • How to use a tourniquet.
  • Immediate responders  - You may be called upon in a mass casualty or active shooter event. MAKE SURE YOU SEE THE VIDEO FOR "IMPROVING SURVIVABILITY"

Join The GRVAC Family
Having lived in Glen Rock most of my life, I felt it was time to get more involved in town.  Joining the GRVAC was a great decision and has been very rewarding.  It’s very fulfilling to be a part of this unified and diverse group of people who are dedicated to serving the community.
