This is Drake Rudolph. Drake is our main Stop the bleed instructor and he’s so excited to share some information about Stop the Bleed.

Who is the class for?
EVERYONE! Drake teaches people from all walks of life. No prior experience necessary, just a willingness to learn and a positive attitude.

Why take this class?
No one knows when or where the next emergency might be. The one thing we do know is, being able to stop major bleeding fast saves lives. We want our Citizens to have the knowledge and confidence to help keep our community safe and healthy.

What to expect?
You can expect incredible enthusiasm, instruction and direction from FF Rudolph. The class is a mix between hands on training and power point. Most importantly you can expect to gain critical knowledge that could potentially save someone’s life.

FF Rudolph takes great pride in teaching these classes. He has a passion for teaching and it is evident with each class he puts on. If you’re interested in taking a Stop the Bleeding class with FF Rudolph call the station to sign up!
