Pupils learn from KnifeSavers talk
We were delighted to welcome Consultant Surgeon and KnifeSavers founder Dr Nikhil Misra to Merchant Taylors’ for a talk which focused on educating and empowering pupils on how to treat life threatening knife injuries.
Old Crosbeian Dr Misra informed pupils that after being stabbed, a person can bleed to death in just 5 minutes whilst a rapid response ambulance can often take around 7 minutes to arrive at the scene, meaning the need for controlling bleeding is critical in order to preserve a life.
Dr Misra also showcased how we can help deal with bleeding caused by knife injuries through Bleed Control Kits. These kits have been designed to provide real-time assistance to those who are dealing with bleeding from a knife wound, giving them high quality, life-saving equipment.
We’d like to thank Dr Misra for giving up his time to educate pupils on this highly important topic, if you’d like more information surrounding KnifeSavers please click HERE.
