American Red Cross First Aid for Severe Trauma (FAST) Certification Course

Uncontrolled bleeding is the leading cause of preventable death from trauma. The American Red Cross First Aid for Severe Trauma (FAST) program provides participants with the knowledge and skills they need to respond to an emergency involving life-threatening bleeding, including how to:

• recognize a life-threatening bleeding emergency;
• ensure safety and communicate effectively in an emergency;
• control life-threatening bleeding using direct pressure, a tourniquet, or both.

The program is designed to enhance participants’ ability to take decisive, lifesaving action to assist a person with a traumatic injury and life-threatening bleeding until professional responders arrive.

Upon successful completion of this course, participants will receive First Aid for Severe Trauma certification that is valid for 2 years.

WALK-INS will not be accepted.
