Stop the Bleed: Bleeding Control Training

Learn the skills. Be ready to save a life. In an emergency, knowing how to control severe bleeding can save a life. This hands-on training teaches participants to recognize life-threatening bleeding and perform basic bleeding control techniques, including applying direct pressure, packing wounds with gauze, and using a tourniquet. No prior medical experience is necessary. Participants who successfully complete the training will receive a Stop the Bleed course completion certificate through the American College of Surgeons’ Stop the Bleed program. You’ll leave with practical skills and greater confidence to help someone experiencing a bleeding emergency. Before taking the field portion, participants must complete the ACS Online Certification beforehand and show a screenshot of their completed certification. This online course should only take about 30 minutes. Other Important Info. Location: 5000 Lula Lake Road, Lookout Mountain GA 30750. Arrival Time: The gate will open at 8:30 a.m. ET.
