Stop the Bleed training will run from 9 to 11 a.m. and will cover ways bystanders can help control severe bleeding until professional responders arrive. Naloxone training follows from 11 a.m. to noon and will explain how to recognize a suspected opioid overdose and use naloxone. Participants may attend either class or both.
The Rescue Squad has also scheduled the same free sessions for Nov. 7 and Dec. 5. Registration is available through the Scotch Plains Rescue Squad's Facebook page using the QR code on the accompanying flyer. For more information, contact Susan Baldani at suebaldani@yahoo.com or 908-672-2547.
