This article about the tragic death of a 21 year old after a shark bite illustrates the importance of proper training. In this article it states that staff of a tour group in the Bahamas did little to nothing to aid the victim of a shark bite. OF COURSE, no one here is saying anyone should have jumped into the water to fend off sharks. Scene Safety and knowing one’s personal training and limits is the top of our list of steps in any emergency situation. However, once the scene was safe and the victim was secured, what would you have done? What steps could have been taken to aid the victim? We at Polaris believe that everyone can be trained and feel confident to step in and save a life. Bleeding control is a vital skill to learn and use when life threatening bleeding takes place.
