STOP THE BLEED Training Classes
Boston College EMS is proud to offer STOP THE BLEED education classes.
STOP THE BLEED is a national campaign to encourage bystanders to become trained, equipped, and empowered to help in a bleeding emergency before professional help arrives.
ACS STOP THE BLEED Training
Our instructors will teach you in person using training materials specially developed to teach bleeding control techniques. They will not only instruct you, but they will also be available to check your movements as you practice three different bleeding control actions:
- Use your hands to apply direct pressure to a wound.
- Pack a wound to control bleeding.
- Apply a tourniquet.
These three techniques will empower you to assist in an emergency. Instructors will keep working with you until you demonstrate the correct skills to stop the bleed and save a life.
