Fredericksburg Rescue Squad is hosting an all day community training event for the citizens of the Fredericksburg area and communities that surround it on Thursday, May 23rd. Trained Instructors from Rocky Mountain Resuscitation will teach the “stop the bleed” course. The squad is also offering hands-only CPR instruction at the same time.
You will learn important skills such as: direct pressure, wound packing, and tourniquet usage. No prior medical training is needed! All are welcome to attend! Classes are 90 min each and you can come at any time. No need to register ahead of time.
Class times: 08:00, 09:30, 11:00, 12:30, and 2pm.
May is National Stop the Bleed Month and May 23rd is National Stop the Bleed day.
A bleeding injury can happen anywhere. We’ve all seen it happen too often- on the news or in everyday life. Life-threatening bleeding can happen to people injured in serious accidents or disasters. Instead of being a witness, you can become an immediate responder because you know how to Stop The Bleed.
This event will be held at the Fredericksburg Rescue squad located at 510 William St. Fredericksburg, VA 22401.
