School administrators, firefighters and nurses gathered last month for a Stop-the-Bleed class in Haines.  Participants practiced lifesaving wound care skills, and discussed how the separate agencies would cooperate in case of a mass casualty incident in rural Alaska.  As KHNS’s Jenn Shelton reports, first responders had to apply a tourniquet to a bleeding mannequin in under 30 seconds to earn a Stop-the-Bleed certification.
