Petition Mandatory bleed control kits and training for establishments serving alcohol.
Bleed kits can be the difference between life or death in the event of a catastrophic puncture wound.
These kits are cheap and compliment traditional first aid equipment in locations with higher risks of such events occurring, early intervention would certainly reduce the amount of fatalities.
More details
Given the upwards trend of knife crime, it is essential that we re-evaluate our ideals of crucial first aid equipment, especially where the risks are obviously alot higher.
Should these kits be mandatory in the said locations, it could ease pressure on emergency services and the NHS alike, whilst saving multiple lives and is not certainly exclusive to victims of knife crime. They could assist in multiple applications where a serious bleed is present, especially when time is of the essence.
