University Health will offer monthly hands-on training sessions to control bleeding in critical situations
Learn life-saving skills and make a difference in an emergency before help arrives. University Health is offering free training through its Stop the Bleed program.
Instructors will provide hands-on bleeding control techniques during a one-hour course at University Hospital in the Judy & Jim Adams Conference Center.
This course will be held monthly, and registration is required. Group training sessions are also available upon request.
TRAINING DETAILS
The training lasts just one hour and is divided into two parts:
First 30 minutes: A lecture where all participants come together to learn about the importance of bleeding control and the techniques involved.
Second 30 minutes: Hands-on skills training with an instructor. During this time, students will practice critical techniques such as wound packing and tourniquet placement.
To successfully complete the training, participants must:
- Attend the entire class and engage actively.
- Practice wound packing and tourniquet placement under the guidance of the instructor.
All participants will receive a certificate upon completion of this course.
PARKING INSTRUCTIONS
Guests will need to park in the visitors’ garage located near the hospital entrance or across the street in the staff parking lot.
