                      ‘Stop the Bleed’ Training Program to Help Save Lives in Northwest Arkansas

                      11/26/2019

                      Stop the Bleed is a community-focused training program in bleeding control principles. It teaches bystanders how to provide immediate aid until first responders are able to take over care of an injured person. The goal is to control bleeding and prevent death.

                      On Dec. 10, Northwest Health trauma team members will teach Stop the Bleed training for the public. The training will start at 6:00 p.m. at Northwest Medical Center – Springdale Tower II Classroom, located at 609 W Maple Ave. in Springdale. A second class will be offered Dec. 18 at 5:30 p.m. at Siloam Springs Regional Hospital Classroom 1, located at 603 N Progress Ave., in Siloam Springs.

                      Course participants will learn the ABC’s of bleeding control: A, Alert 911 and ask for bleeding control supplies; B, Find the Bleeding injury; and C, Compress the area with direct pressure. In small groups with hands-on instruction from Northwest Health team members, participants learn how to use tourniquets, pack wounds and other critical steps to take in the moments following a traumatic event before rescue crews and police arrive. The techniques are straightforward and can be utilized in everyday life by anyone, of any age, without any prior medical training.

                      Stop the Bleed, as described by the Hartford Consensus and launched by the American College of Surgeons in 2015, intends to cultivate grassroots efforts that encourage bystanders to become trained, equipped, and empowered to help in a bleeding emergency before professional help arrives, according to the Department of Homeland Security’s webpage on the program.

                      BleedingControl.org supports the policy directive for national preparedness, which targets preparedness as a shared responsibility of the government, the private and nonprofit sectors, and individual citizens.

                      To register for one of these FREE classes, email CommunityRelations@nw-health.com or call 479-757-LIFE (5433). Space is limited.
