This course will review pathogens, ways to protect ourselves from exposure, and the steps to take if exposed. In addition, it will discuss bleeding control basics. Students will be able to identify life threatening bleeding, and ways to prevent a loss of life. One of the most common causes of preventable death after traumatic injury is uncontrolled bleeding. Participants will be required to perform practical exercises for bleeding control. This course is designed to teach you how to recognize and control life-threatening bleeding. We can’t do that without clinical photographs/videos that are relevant to the course content. Some of these information is graphic in nature and may be disturbing to some individuals.
