Members of Lawrence General Hospital's trauma team advocated for the importance of STOP the BLEED education at the recent National Conference of State Legislatures summit in Boston. The group was proud to join the Society of Trauma Nurses in its push for Stop the Bleed kits in all public buildings. Stop the Bleed is a national initiative to educate and empower non-medical professionals to identify life threatening bleeding and take action to help save lives while waiting for paramedics to arrive. Lawrence General has been teaching Stop the Bleed classes in schools, fire and police departments, fish and game clubs, and student clubs locally since 2018. Interested in bringing this life saving class to your group? Call us at 978-683-4000, Ext. 2075. #ncslsummit #stopthebleed #donateblood #caringforthecommunity (fb)
