This place is giving free Stop the Bleed classes through June 2026.  It's about tournaquets, wound packing, etc.   It's only on the weekdays.  I'm taking it this Wednesday.

Excellent class. Highly recommended.
Last time I went they gave us a free "Bleed Kit" which included scissors, marker and CAT 5  tourniquet.

I attended the Stop the Bleed class today. It was on the top floor conference center of the Honolulu Airport Interisland parking lot. I didn't know that place existed. Class was free and 1 1/2hrs long going over tournaquets, direct pressure, and wound packing. It's a good refresher for those that did it in the military, LE, or took a medical class before. For people that never did it before, they learned a lot and enough to take care of the problem if its thrown at them. There were a dozen students in the class who appeared to be just regular people and a few teachers. I took this as a prerequisite to be a stop the bleed instructor for the red cross.
Prior to this, they held their free CPR class and the classroom was packed full. I thought a lot of them would stay over for the stop the bleed, but they all left. Guess they just needed it for work.
