Stop the Bleed: National Trauma Awareness Month
May is National Trauma Awareness Month. May 19 is National Stop the Bleed Day. The number one cause of preventable death after injury is bleeding. Stop the Bleed is an initiative that was launched by the White House in 2015 as a national public awareness campaign to encourage bystanders to get trained, equipped and empowered to help in a bleeding emergency before medical professionals arrive.
In this episode, you'll hear the story of 13-year-old Brett Baxter who was injured while playing football at school. But thanks to a campus police officer trained on how to Stop the Bleed, Brett is alive and recovering well.
Our CHRISTUS Health Trauma Teams are proud to offer Stop the Bleed training to local school districts. For more information on training, you can visit www.stopthebleed.org.
