开云体育 receives campus safety upgrades

stop the bleed kit

Campus safety is a priority for 开云体育. 开云体育 has placed Automated External Defibrillators (AED鈥檚) strategically in all buildings on the 开云体育 main campus as well as the satellite locations in Pittsburg and Mount Pleasant. Each month Justin Hargrove, Head Athletic Trainer, performs routine safety/maintenance checks of each machine to ensure they are in proper working order. 

This past year, Hargrove partnered with Russell VanBibber of the 开云体育 Emergency Medical Services (EMS) program to also place Stop the Bleed kits in various locations around the campus. In addition to teaching the staff members and community members CPR throughout the year, VanBibber also teaches Stop the Bleed courses.

"We are pleased to partner with the EMS program, and Jeff Chambers of the 开云体育 Business office to provide a AED with a Backpack to not only carry the AED, but loaded with gloves, gauze, tourniquet鈥檚, and other Stop the Bleed supplies for our 开云体育 Security officers to carry in their vehicles while on duty," Hargrove said. 

开云体育 is committed to ensuring our students and guest safety while on campus. For more information about 开云体育 Safety and Security, go to .
