Franciscan Healthcare wants to help you save lives.

Uncontrolled bleeding is a major cause of preventative deaths. Approximately 40% of trauma-related deaths worldwide are due to bleeding or its consequences, establishing hemorrhage as the most common cause of preventable death in trauma.

Though man made or natural mass casualty events get a lot of attention, serious bleeding is more likely to result from everyday injuries that happen at home, at work, or while on the road.

The STOP THE BLEED® program teaches you how to properly use dressings, tourniquets and your own hands to control bleeding, regardless of the cause.

Franciscan Healthcare’s Anne Liska, PA-C, has received an educational license from the Department of Defense to train STOP THE BLEED® courses in West Point, Howells, Wisner, Oakland, Scribner, and Wayne, Nebraska.

Class length is approximately one-hour and is FREE OF CHARGE.
