While more than 1 million people have now been trained to STOP THE BLEED®, that’s just a start. Our goal is to train 200 million. Why? Because the purpose of the STOP THE BLEED® campaign is to make our nation more resilient by better preparing the public to save lives if people nearby are severely bleeding. This preparation is being done by raising awareness and teaching people how to learn three quick actions to control severe bleeding.

Stop the Bleed, Save a Life.

• CALL 911
• APPLY PRESSURE WITH HANDS
• APPLY DRESSING AND PRESS
• APPLY TOURNIQUET
