Stop the Bleed/Take 10 CPR
Stop the Bleed teaches how to stop life-threatening bleeding with the use of a tourniquet or wound packing. Take 10 CPR teaches hands-only compressions in just 10 minutes. These two courses are combined into one program which lasts approximately 70:00. Classes are offered on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month at 9:00 AM and 10:30 AM, beginning in November, 2018. Class size is limited to (16) and attendees must be 16 years of age or older. Minimum class size is 5 or we reserve the right to reschedule the class.

No certificate is issued for Take 10 CPR and it does not take the place of other CPR programs offered by the department.
