NESC Announces Upcoming Stop the Bleed & Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED Trainings
The Nebraska Safety Council (NESC, nesafetycouncil.org) is sharing information on their upcoming Stop the Bleed and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED trainings.
NESC recently began offering Stop the Bleed, a registered trademark of the US Department of Defense. Stop the Bleed is designed to train participants with the ability to recognize life-threatening bleeding and act quickly and effectively to control bleeding by learning three techniques. This training is offered FREE once a month to members of NESC. Upcoming trainings are scheduled for: June 15, July 13, and August 10.
NESC also offers a Pediatric First Aid, CPR, and AED training the first Wednesday and Saturday of each month. Through a variation of lecture, video, group discussion, and hands-on training, the course will teach first aid basics including medical, injury, poison, and environmental emergencies; preventing illnesses and injuries; and controlling bleeding and bandaging. During the eight-hour course, participants will also be trained in Stop the Bleed and will receive a certificate for the training free of cost. The full-day course fee is $85 for members and $90 for non-members. Upcoming trainings are scheduled for: July 6, July 9, August 3, August 6, September 3, and September 7.
