Preparedness Training

You Are the Help until Help Arrives (Until Help Arrives) is a program designed to educate and empower the public to take action in emergency situations and provide lifesaving care before professional help arrives. Through online instruction and in-person trainings, participants are trained to take action and, through simple steps, potentially save a life. Materials developed for this educational campaign include a 2.5-hour instructor-led course, a 30-minute web-based training, and an interactive video. 

Until Help Arrives teach you the basic skills to keep people with potentially life‐threatening injuries alive until professional help arrives.  Life-threatening emergencies can happen fast and emergency responders aren’t always nearby. You may be able to save a life by taking simple actions immediately.

Learn five simple steps that may save a life: 

1. Call 9-1-1 
2. Stay Safe 
3. Stop the Bleeding 
4. Position the Injured 
5. Provide Comfort
