Time Is Critical During Emergencies
Uncontrolled bleeding is a serious emergency. Blood loss due to trauma is a leading cause of preventable death in the United States. If care is delayed, even by a few minutes, uncontrolled bleeding can quickly become life-threatening.
When active violence occurs, time is critical to survival. Being able to react quickly and with confidence is vital to saving lives.

Through a combination of online and dynamic in-person training, you will learn various response procedures, including escaping, evading, or attacking. After completing AVERT, you will also know how to perform emergency bleeding control as you wait for first responders to arrive.
