Stop the Bleed is an initiative born after the Sandy Hook tragedy, aiming to empower civilians with battlefield-proven techniques to control life-threatening bleeding before professional help arrives. The program highlights that bleeding is the leading preventable cause of death after injury and emphasizes immediate action in real-world scenarios like shootings and accidents. Key skills taught include applying direct pressure, wound packing, and using tourniquets, stressing scene safety and calling emergency services. Real stories, such as the Pittsburgh Synagogue attack and the Boston Marathon bombing, illustrate how bystander intervention with Stop the Bleed knowledge saved lives. The initiative underscores that anyone can make a difference by learning these simple techniques and having the courage to act.
