Operation School Readiness, Hard Facts
Hemorrhage accounts for approximately 35% of the mortality from traumatic injuries, this second only to central nervous system (CNS) injury. And up to half of the deaths resulting from hemorrhage occur before reaching and achieving definitive care. Just to be sure, violence is the leading cause of these injuries and traffic collisions are second. In 2015, the national trauma institute estimated that in the civilian arena (mainly schools), “severe bleeding accounts for more than 35% of pre-hospital deaths and nearly 40% of deaths within the first 24 hours of injury.” In my view, we must be more informed and educated as to how to more quickly and efficiently we can handle these situations.
A current study of wounded service members and civilians from the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan demonstrated a 92% survival rate of casualties who had tourniquets applied to extremity injuries. However, no casualties survived after suffering an uncontrolled extremity hemorrhage in which no tourniquet was used.

Here is What I Think
My next door neighbor is one of the founders of this non profit. I have found Mike to be completely honest and above reproach. Anybody, or any school district would be well advised to research this operation in it’s entirety. I gave this information to both of my children and they immediately brought it to their respective school boards. One has already implemented the program.
