MCHD to host free classes
As part of a national
public service campaign
to Stop the Bleed, Morrow
County Health District will
offer three free classes to
the public on National Stop
the Bleed Day, Saturday,
Mar. 31 at Pioneer Me-
morial Hospital. Classes
will be taught by Morrow
County Health District staff
and will be offered at 10
a.m., 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. with
each class lasting about one
hour. No preregistration is
required and older children
may attend, said a spokes-
person.
Stop the Bleed is a na-
tional campaign started by
the White House in 2015 to
address the most common
cause of preventable trauma
death in the United States,
uncontrolled bleeding. This
course explains how to stop
bleeding using three tech-
niques: applying pressure,
packing a wound and us-
ing a tourniquet until more
sophisticated care arrives.
Trauma surgeon Len-
worth Jacobs, MD, MPH,
FACS, who helped the
medical examiner review
autopsies following the
Sandy Hook Elementary
school shootings in 2012,
was named to lead the Hart-
ford Consensus, a commit-
tee focusing on increasing
survival rates from active
shooter and mass casualty
events. However, the skills
can be used to stop heavy
bleeding from any injury.
“The reality is that for
the first five or 10 minutes
(after a trauma injury), the
person who is going to
save you is the person right
beside you,” Jacobs says.
“What we want is for Stop
the Bleed or hemorrhage
control to be as common as
CPT,” he adds.
Lady golfers to begin season
The WCCC Ladies golf group will begin their season with a breakfast meeting at
9 a.m. on Apr. 3 and a golf scramble beginning at 10 a.m.
Apr. 2 will be a workday at the Willow Creek golf course beginning at 9 a.m.
