If bleeding is severe, it can kill within minutes, potentially before trained responders can arrive. Through educating individuals with basic tools and information on the steps they can take in an emergency situation to stop life-threatening bleeding, lives can be saved. Research has shown that bystanders, with little or no medical training, can become heroic lifesavers.\u00a0Similar to the use of CPR or automatic defibrillators, improving public awareness about how to stop severe bleeding and expanding personal and public access to Bleeding Control Kits can be the difference between life and death for an injured person.<\/p>\n<p>Please click here for the Office of Homeland Security step-by-step instructional poster on how to Stop the Bleed. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/oha\/16_1011_stopthebleed_infographic_full.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[5092]\">https:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/oha\/16_1011_stopthebleed_infographic_full.jpg<br \/>\n<\/a><br \/>\nThe Cooper Trauma Center offers many injury prevention programs that support this initiative as well as many more.
