Many people in Africa get hurt in road traffic accidents, and this can cause a lot of bleeding. If it takes a long time to get to a hospital, knowing how to stop the bleeding can save lives. Our team is teaching people how to help stop bleeding in an emergency. You will learn 5 steps to stop bleeding and how to use bandages and a tourniquet. Our research group is made up of partners from the original Active Bleeding control team in India and the U.S.A.
Volunteers from Africa Fire Mission (AFM); Pediatric ICU doctors from the U.S.A., and ICU and emergency doctors from Kenyatta National Hospital and University of Nairobi are working hard to bring quality training to Africa.
