Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center trauma prevention staff led about 100 Pennsylvania State Police cadets in Stop the Bleed training on Nov. 3. Cadets listened to a lecture about Stop the Bleed and participated in training sessions with live actors in the simulation labs.

Penn State Health is part of a national Stop the Bleed awareness campaign that encourages bystanders to become trained on first aid techniques and equipped to help in a bleeding emergency before professional help arrives.
