ANPA Brings Life-Saving ‘Stop The Bleed’ Training to Imo Residents
Maryam Aminu
In a bid to equip residents with critical emergency response skills, the Association of Nigerian Physicians in the Americas (ANPA) is set to host a STOP THE BLEED Training in Owerri, Imo State, aimed at reducing preventable deaths caused by severe bleeding.
The training, scheduled for April 16, 2026, at 9:00 AM, will take place at the Swiss International Beland Hotel, Owerri. It is designed to empower participants with practical knowledge on how to control life-threatening bleeding in emergency situations before professional medical help arrives.
According to organizers, uncontrolled bleeding remains one of the leading causes of preventable deaths in accidents and trauma cases. The STOP THE BLEED initiative teaches simple but effective techniques such as applying pressure, wound packing, and the use of tourniquets.
Participants will gain hands-on experience and confidence to act decisively during emergencies, potentially saving lives in their communities.
ANPA emphasized the importance of community involvement, urging residents, students, professionals, and community leaders across Imo State to take advantage of the training.
Interested participants are encouraged to register via www.anpa.org� as spaces are limited.
