Free Stop the Bleed Courses Available to Employees in September

In an emergency, minutes count. Severe hemorrhaging can lead to death in as little as five minutes, but knowing when and how to use a tourniquet can save lives.

Stop the Bleed is a national program that teaches appropriate tourniquet use and bleeding control. Created by the American College of Surgeons' Committee on Trauma (ACS COT), the courses teach skills that can mean the difference between life and death during active shooter events, car accidents or even accidents at home.

The courses are available at no cost to all Methodist employees. (Note: Check with your supervisor to see if this is a required course to potentially be paid for taking it.)
