“North American Rescue is honored to have the privilege to work with the American College of Surgeons in support of their mission to train and equip individuals to STOP THE BLEED®,” said Brent Bronson, Senior Vice President of Public Safety Sales at North American Rescue. “NAR’s mission has always been to reduce preventable deaths and the desire to see more lives saved. We are excited about the potential of this program to provide bystanders with the lifesaving training and kits needed to stop life-threatening bleeding in an emergency. The ACS is committed to excellent work, and we are proud to support it.”
STOP THE BLEED® was launched in October of 2015 by the White House, with a call to action to begin training more people to become immediate responders during a bleeding emergency until professional help arrives. The ACS STOP THE BLEED® program is operated under a licensing agreement granted by the Department of Defense.
