Mass shootings, like the one last week in Florida, can leave some people feeling nervous.
While mass shootings don’t happen every day, car accidents and industrial accidents do. With all that in mind, hospitals around the country are putting on free workshops to teach people how to prevent someone from bleeding to death.
The goal is to make bleeding control more common knowledge, like the Heimlich maneuver or CPR.
