Today we trained on vehicle extrication—working on new techniques while also sharpening the basics. Big thanks to the Devils Lake crew for coming out and sharing their knowledge. It’s always a great opportunity when we can learn from each other and continue improving our techniques and procedures.

Highly recommend this class if you can attend!

In a rural community, time is not on our side. Hospitals are 20–30 minutes away, volunteers are coming from full-time jobs, and it can take 5–10 minutes just to get help on scene.

That first few minutes matters. Having the knowledge to act immediately can save a life. Stop the Bleed is a great class and a true difference maker. 💪🩸

‼ Don't forget this is next week‼
Benson County rural farm and ranch residents –
Did you know the number one cause of preventable death after injury is bleeding?

👉Please register for this valuable learning opportunity to gain knowledge how to be better prepared when there is a critical injury on your farm or ranch. Minutes count!

Lunch will be provided.
