Self-in-Ly! The Pepper Broadcasting Network. We have to hit the reset button and create a true culture of preparedness, starting at a very young age and filtering all the way up. I'm excited because I'm going to issues with getting day set up mainly on my end. So big apology, but great to have here. From North American Rescue, yes, I'm sure most of you have their products in your bags. And if you're smart, you will have their products in your bags. But that being said, I have Chris Hoin from North American Rescue here on air with us.

And so, Chris, thank you so much. I appreciate it. I'm sure I messed up your last name again. I do apologize. But if you could about yourself, if you don't mind, before we really get into North American Rescue. I'm the director of community preparedness programs for North American Rescue. We sell medical equipment, specifically things control. major bleeding we try to reduce preventable causes. We started the company started with

reducing death on the battlefield and now we moved into public safety and now we sell to everybody because of the pleading control problem for everybody. Again, it's number one causes of death when he's 144 I believe. I have a background in I was a firefighter paramedic for 21 years. I was the medic on the SWAT team for 16, so I'm familiar with our products. I've used them, and I worked in a busy system. No, it sounds like it. I think that's awesome. But North American Rescue, I mean, North American Rescue was actually originally what provided a lot of the medical stuff, though, for the military, right, before it became civilian.

And then moved over to public safety, started selling to law enforcement, tactical teams on law enforcement. fire departments, EMS. And again, now we sell the church schools, individuals, hunters, people buy their products. Right. And, you know, it's amazing because I think a lot of people, when they think about North American rescue, especially lately, they think of the cat ternicate, or the cat tourniquet, which is an awesome tourniquet to have. I mean, I'm jumping ahead, but real quick, let me, let me, before I get too head of myself, You are actually the director of community preparedness programs.

That's one big title right there. So what is it that you actually do in North American Rescues? Basically, I just answer questions that people have about preparing their schools, their churches, their community, how to do it better using our products. So if people call, they want to get products for their school, they ask me, you know, how would I go about putting me? Do I put one in every classroom? Do I put them in every, a station, like multiple individual kids in a location on the wall?

And what's the way to do it? So I'm just walking through it. It depends on the budget and what they're trying to accomplish and just trying to answer questions and help them get what the best for their most things for their bucking. No, I think that's great. So you were saying that you help people with the questions, which right right there is probably a hard job anyways. I'm dealing with the public directly.

But you say you help the schools and churches and communities. So are there programs in particular that help you or help the community in order to address these potential accidents? So there is a program called Doc the Bleed Program. It's on bleeding control.org. And it's a big push to teach everybody how to control major bleeding using the cat's herniquid, emergency trauma dressing, pressure dressing, gauze for wound packing, quick clot, and how to teach people how to use these because it's not just active shooter events

where you might need them, any accident where somebody might bleed to death. So you go to the leading control.org website you find clacking in your area by typing in your phone number. Basically, we're at the beginning stages of what was CPR was many years ago, is we taught everybody how to do CPR. We put automatic external the fibulators to ADs everywhere so that when somebody has to go from cardiac arrest, somebody starts CPR, somebody goes to grab the defibrillator and takes a lot of lives that way.

We're in the beginning stages of that as well as progress that going on for a couple of years, but it keeps gaining momentum, and there's legislator in multiple states to put these kids in schools and in public places. So you'll keep seeing them. The big program will keep growing. No, I think that's great.

Oh, sorry. Go ahead. I was just going to say that's what I do. No, I think that's great. So, you know, and a lot of these kids, though, you don't put them in there just for, like, the situation at hand where people are always talking about active shooter. You're talking about any energy injury where an individual could cause a severe wound.

So in Georgia, they put kids in their school. They had an eight-year-old girl fall off the playground, a fracture of her humor. that's in your arm, lacerate for brachial arteries, the nurse cordon to get on and save your life. So it could be just a freak accident like that. It doesn't have to be an active shooter or a salient event. Accidents happen every day, car accidents, motorcycles,

you know, when motorcycles get into a ride or pedestrians, there's a lot of lower leg injuries. You have large arteries that you can complete deaths fairly quickly. So yeah, so trying to get these products everywhere, so you don't have to make a tourniquet. You can use something that you know that works. Right, because a lot of these other tourniquets don't actually cut off or stop the flow of blood like some of the turnicates you offer.

I've seen videos where people show the difference, especially when you're trying to make your own tourniquet and they're able to still pick up a heavy pulse in which the patient would still essentially just bleed out. You know, making a makeshift tourniquet is hard. when you have a cat's herniquette is pretty easy to use we teach children how to use it we teach multiple classes we've had you know seven and eight year olds in our class and they can and they can put it on successfully and could be able to step in the flow of blood so it is easy to use and again anybody

can do it a young or old no i think that's great so for the listeners who didn't catch it he was talking about going to bleedin control dot org um It's spelled exactly like you hear it, B-L-E-E-D-I-N-G, C-O-N-T-R-L. That's actually a really cool website. I went ahead and pulled it up. I like that. Like you said, it gives you an option to find classes in your area. Thank you.

I really appreciate that. So for those of my listeners who don't know who North American Rescue is, you need to go check them out. It's N-Arescue.com. So check them out. They offer a lot of products. I know my first tourniquet actually came from North American Rescue, referred. For my listeners who've been listening from the beginning when I had Tony on,

who did the first aid show, he was the one who actually recommended if you're going to get a tourniquet, go ahead and get it from North American Rescue. Because now, you know, we have some great friends who sell turniquets, and I know they're selling legit stuff. But if you're not buying from a legit seller, you could be getting something that is not as good quality and it's not going to be work in the same way one of these would. Just a little.

Go ahead. There's a lot of counterfeit turnicates on the market. When people shop on Amazon, we don't actually sell on there. We do have distributors that do. But a lot of those that you find out there, especially if you're buying it for a lower price that we're selling the floor, they're probably a knockoff. If you're a shit in the cat, Furnit, please give us a call. No, I have, I know I have one as of right, no, I have two. I'm to a point where I'm looking at actually putting one in each the emergency bags,

not just on the one I carry. So then, goodness forbid, if something happens, we still have one accessible or a couple accessible for any reason. We do a lot of hunting and fishing and out on the property, so you never know what could happen. That being said, you know, I know North American Rescue is really within the last few years known for their tourniquets, but what is something else? Another thing or another item, you really feel like customers should really consider or think about it, especially when it comes to their bags. Our other product, we have quick clot, which is helps form a clot if you get a source of bleeding.

And you can use it in places that you can't put a turnicot on. So, for instance, if you, you know, got shots in your leg, you would be able to, if you go a couple inches higher, you'd put on a cat tourniquet, you'd be able to stop the flow bleeding. But if you've got a shot in the groin area, you cannot use a tourniquet in that area. So you're going to have to actually pack the wound. So quick clot is a good on you as well, so that you can pack the wound to help form the clot, keep holding pressure on it. So when we tell, you know, a lot of our kids will have a cat tourniquet, a quick lot, or some, you know, some other type of gauze for wound packing with pressure dressings, which are good somewhere between a Band-Aid and tourniquet.

Not everything needs a, not everything needs a tourniquet, but some things are harder to stop at others. So putting it like an ace wrap on it with a pad is basically what our pressure dressings are. You slap that on there, wrap it real tight, and you can control the plating fairly quickly. Right. No, I think that's great. I think extinguination would probably be a terrible way to go. I agree. I mean, I've seen some horrible accidents.

I worked in a hospital for three years, and I've seen my share of injuries, whether it be chainsaw accidents, attacks, dog bites, gunshots, even arterial bleed. So it is really scary and how easy, how quickly something can go from okay to absolutely terrible. Right, yeah, and that's what the cathartic is for. for arterial bleeding you can't control it. Again, you can bleed fairly quickly in your from the formal artery, which runs down in your leg, in your upper, in your upper leg. You can bleed to death a couple of minutes from that, so you need to have something on you and address

it quickly. No, I think that's great. I also see that North American Rescue also offers like MFACs, many first aid kits. They actually have pre-set or pre-started packs for those who aren't sure. We have a lot of things that's pretty much what we do is we pack kits convenience for people so you don't know exactly what you want you can call up assets and then we kind of give you depending on what you're looking for some people like back and feel because you know it's going to be out of the weather maybe on the boat other people like Molly's they can put on their you know a gas or a backpack or something like that so we have all different times of kids what people want something a little more

robust. So we have those two as well as, you know, just a regular first aid kit that had band-aids and that kind of like the cat tourniquet and the pressure dressing. So you have your everyday first aid kit, but you also will have the life-safing complete control products in there as well. So I'm curious, and I'm sure a lot of listeners will be too, is what do you carry in your emergency bag? I know, you know, you previously being a paramedic and a firefighter and actively in this type of work, do you feel like you have an advantage? Or, I mean, what do you carry that maybe we can get a feel for that might give us an idea to keep in our little trauma packs or day packs or whatever it is you carry on you?

So I carry a cat tourniquet. I carry a quick lot. I carry a pressure dressing. I carry an extra gown, a pair of gloves because you want to keep yourself safe. And depending on where I'm going, trauma shears, in that bag as well. that's pretty much with me all the time it takes my backpack even when I'm traveling on flying when I'm in my car and I have one in my car as well no I think that's great I'm actually my husband you know you're probably the one in your household who handles all this and I know

you've got a lot more training but in my house it's funny because my husband will hear me his first aid kit and he goes fix this and I'll look at it and I have to judge okay he needs this this this and this being that he works in construction and it was one of those things where I've actually considered the fact because he works in industrial, you know, and new industrial buildings, it probably wouldn't hurt for him to have a tourniquet because we have, we actually went through a partial de-gloving incident just for him. So that, that right there was traumatic enough that, you know, it doesn't take but a small little piece of metal to nearly rip off your entire finger.

It actually should happen anywhere and it happened quickly and it's better to have it not needed, that he did not have it. Exactly. That's what I say in my house. I'll be asked, why do you have this? And it's like, well, exactly like you said, I'd rather have it not need it, then need it not have it.

So is it the same, though, with your trauma stuff, that two is one and one is none? Yeah, a lot of people like to carry two tourniquets as well. You know, if you have a real large thigh, you may need two tourniquets to stop the bleeding. You know, you have muscular guys with muscular thighs. Sometimes it takes two turnicets. just the top of bleeding there.

If you have multiple wounds, you may need two to stop it in different extremities. People ask all the time how many people will this kid treat. And it really depends on the injury pattern. You know, one kid may be more than enough and one kid may not be enough. It just depends on, you know, what the injuries are and where they are. Right, absolutely, because depending on the situation, you know, for example, and I hate to use this, but it's what everybody seems to be so, terrified of is an active shooter. You know, if that person is determined and you are not well

defended or defending yourself, the casualties and entries could be quite high. Or same for a car accident. You know, all it takes is one vehicle to go off the road and hit a group of people, then you're going to have a higher casualty or a higher injury rate than if it was just one vehicle by itself or you hiking out and you tripped and you cut your leg. something with you so you can you know it's never good to be standing there looking at somebody who's good real bad not have anything with you always want to have something with you you nobody you can't plan for you know 40 patients but you you want to be prepared somewhat so that you always had

something on you right you well you know that was like uh were you military I was not no man okay well and I'm pretty sure it's very similar though for your firefighter training you know we in Boots they were teaching us what we carried had to be used for ourselves. So if, you know, during the training, even during basic training, we had to do a wound trauma simulation in which one of our fellow men or women was injured. And we had to actually use their pack, their canteen, you know, that was used to tend to them. Because the, the whole theory was, is if you used your gear on them, then you would have nothing if you got hurt. I don't know if that's very similar with your experience.

Well, with firemen's a little differently, with police officers, they carry a tournick, they'll be able to these walks around and they'll have a cat turn to get on them. And that really is for them for their officer safety because they work in their patrol cars by themselves. And if they get to cut battle and get and get shot, they'll be able to fly themselves. They're going to both differently.

People aren't shooting us. Does happen occasionally. That's the most part our equipment that we carry is for our patients or doctors. You know, I'm going to ask you, if you don't mind, is I'm a household of five, five people. You know what I'll say six, six people, and my sister-in-law is also, she was in the EMT. So for a household like mine, would you suggest me having a certain number of tourniquets or a certain number of certain things in my house? Like, I know, for example, gauze, you can never have enough gauze.

You know, I dealt with second and third-degree burns last year, and I thought I had too much gauze, and I didn't have near a, enough gauze. So now I'm like over my eyeballs with gauze and I told my husband it's still not enough. It's going to happen. Like I said, you always want to have something on hand. It's hard to, you know, you can't, most people can't afford to have one for every person, you know, no matter how big people who lives in the house, but you always want to have something. I like to spread them out, you know, I have one, you know, in my house. I put in my bag. I put in my car, you Because I could inevitably probably be if you carry you that I'm going to buy them.

I have one and I'm going to take it everywhere I go. You're probably going to leave it today you need it. So I like to have one in multiple locations. So it's there. I need it. Right. Now don't you also sell a practice tourniquet? Isn't, isn't the room?

We have a blue training cat turniquet. Yes, ma'am. It is fully functioning turniquet. It's blue because when you practice with your tourniquet, You should be that should not be the one that you're going to use on yourself or somebody else as a patient So you could if you opened it out of the pack to put on the patient it was definitely Sock it's living and save their life however when you're practicing with it over and over and over again The cat's her ticket is a one-time use item so you want to have a practice one so that you're

familiar with it you know how to use properly but when it comes time that you need one You want to have a brand new one that you know has not been used maybe you know came 100, 150 times in training. Right. Now, how easy would you say something like that is for a child to use, to learn to use? It's pretty easy. We teach how Girl Scales, Boy Scouts, again, we have, we've had multiple classes where we had, you know, seven, eight-year-olds put them on each other, actually.

Oh, wow. Yeah, they're pretty easy to use. We've had those videos up on our Instagram page. They've got to our Rescue. Yes. which for my listeners, if you are interested in seeing them, they have some awesome and amazing updates. I actually follow y'all on Instagram,

and I love seeing the training. I also love seeing where they have injuries on here. I'm actually going to pull it up because it is a really cool site, especially if you like to see what's going on. You see where there's mad respect for the community itself, but you also see the equipment. in use as well. Yeah, our guy does a very good job.

He is not a medical professional, but he does a very good job at talking to people and making sure that he gets the right information out there, and the injuries you see are used for teaching other people so that if you see this, you know, you know what to do. It is a very good job of that. Right, and there is. You can learn a lot by following our social media. Right, and for those of you who have a little bit of a weak stomach forewarn you,

there are some graphic injuries on there. But, you know, in this kind of filled, you've got to be prepared that these types of injuries are going to happen, and they're not going to be pretty, they're not going to be clean, and they're certainly not going to be neat. But if you are interested, them type in North American Rescue completely out, and you will find them, and it's a picture of an eagle

with the First Aid Cross behind it, and it's all in black and gray. But they've got some great stuff there, and it's definitely something I think people should check out, and it really shows what can happen at any point in time. It's really crazy, just the different types of injuries and the stuff you see. Again, Argea, you can learn a lot. But you're right, though, if you have a week's summit, it's probably not for you. You will have to unconger a lot of videos to see them. But it's definitely worthwhile if you're interested in gaining some more knowledge.

Yes, absolutely. I mean, and it's mad respect for the military and police officers and firefighters and everyone who's in the medical field because it is not an easy job. Nope. All right. If you don't mind real quick, I'm going to take just a quick short break. And then when we pick back up, we'll just go a little bit more into North American Rescue and what it is they have to offer.

Sounds good. All right. So bear with me. We'll take a commercial break. And when we come back, we'll keep on with this awesome topic. All right, stay tuned. With so many sources of information out there, it's hard to know which ones to commit to listening to.

It's about time a show came along that didn't waste time with useless banter and talking about everything other than the topic's focus. Here at Gunmetal Armory, we believe that if you are listening to our show, you want to learn, and we will teach you. Tune in every Thursday at 6 p.m. to learn about subjects that every prepper wants to know more about, but didn't know where to start. Oh no. A complete collapse. Marshall Law.

Oh my gosh. I've got to get out of here. I've got to get to my cabin. This is it. Okay, don't panic. Assess the situation and get the right gear. It's time to get at a dodge. A game of post-economic survival. Escape the City using your gear and your wits.

Yes, as you heard, you know, Kill Switch Bunker Games, we are going to be having Susan back on. She is the official sponsor of a family affair. You heard the commercial for Archangel Dynamics, which, Chris, I'm sure you can understand. It's nice to have someone else who is out there as well trying to teach and make awareness for medical readiness.

Just like y'all are. It's great to see that there are so many people out there who are trying to educate our listeners and the people to take a step further in preparedness in their own health. So I think that's wonderful. Thank you, Chris, for bearing with me. I appreciate it. So, if you don't mind me, just going ahead and kicking right into the next question. Okay.

So we had mentioned earlier that, you know, you answer questions and that people contact you. But how would one of our listeners reach out to you or reach out, period, if they have a question on how to get started or even get a kit for their community, school, church, or et cetera? So we have a customer service number they can call? at 888689, 6277. They can answer some questions about kits if you're looking at something and you want to know the difference between the kids. If you're really not sure where to start, you can contact me at C-Foyne at N-Arescue.com and send me an email and I can answer your questions. You can talk on the phone if you need to.

just fed pens. We have plenty people to answer questions if anybody has. So what's a common question that you yourself run into probably more often than none? Most of the time people are calling me. They know they need something for their school, their church, whatever it may be, and they want to know how many they need or where do they put them and things like that. So I like to think of them as fire extinguishers. I wouldn't be able to get to the, if somebody's bleeding, I wouldn't be able to get to the kid and back to the patient and reasonable time.

If you're, you know, if you have three stories, you know, or many acres, you have buildings on many acres all spread out. You don't want to just have one kid in one location because it can take you a long time and go retreat that kid and get back. So that's the biggest questions I get. And the rest of it comes down to really budget. you know and what you're trying to accomplish. We have a five and eight packs of the individual kit,

so you basically get five of the individual kit with a litter to move somebody or eight, and we got those by looking at FBI statistics for Macon Shooter. So we took the average, and it was 6.7. So you can't have .7 of the cowsheed. That's 7 kids, and then one was the average of eight. And then that's how we got it. And then the five-pack came from taking the teeth out of that number, so we don't know exactly when they perished.

If you have 3.7 casualties, you can't have 0.7. There's four. One more than the average is five. So that's how we came up with our five-year-eight-pack, which are a little more robust. Everybody's looking for something different. Some people think they want 20 kids. You know, we can do it. Really, everybody's looking for something different just depending on what they're preparing for.

Right. And that's what I'm looking at here. And the kids that you're talking about are the public. access kits, correct? Yes, ma'am, public that access, fleeting control kits, and they come in kits,

they come in stations. Right. So, like everybody used to see the A-Ds in a station on the wall. That's kind of the goal of the whole Plops of Sleep program as well

to have these, where people get familiar where they see them there and that way in kits where she, you know, they'll go. Right, and I see that. And I like that you have them

where they can mount them to the wall and just get straight to them. And I like that you have so many different styles that it's not like they're stuck with one choice. Like you said, you have the single,

you have the twin, you have the five and eight pack, and then you have the entire panel. So that is quite interesting. Everybody's looking to do something. Yeah, go ahead. Everybody's looking to do something different.

Some people just want, you know, an individual kit, you know, some people want to put, like, a twin pack in their AED cabinet. And some people want a whole station. of them. So again, everybody's trying to do something different. We're trying to have options to fit all the needs. No, and these kits are actually pretty reasonable. I mean, knowing especially what the costs are for these items individually, you're really selling a great kit. I mean,

right here, I'm looking at the public access individual leading control kit nylon, which it looks like a pouch, like anybody's little packs. And it comes with a cat tourniquet. It comes with A responder, I'm not sure what that one is 6 inch ETD. I'm looking at it real quick, but... That is a pressure dressing. It's like an a strap with a pad already on it, so you don't have to go find a 4x4 and then an ace wrap. You open it up, you put the pad on the wound,

and you start wrapping it real tight. And all you're going to do is pull it, and that's how you're going to get your pressure, and you can stop a lot of bleeding with that. I had to put his hand through a window, and I was able to cut his brainial artery. Oh, wow. I was able to stop it with just an urgent trauma.

Yeah, they didn't need to use a truck kit. Wow, and it also comes with a just-in-time instructions. That's great because I'm sure in those panic times, certain people aren't really thinking it thoroughly. Comes with gloves. Huh? Go ahead. It might have been a little while ago because you took your stop of league class

or, you know, since you played with it. So, yeah, we have the directions in there. just a refresh your memory so that you could properly help somebody. No, I think it's great. It even comes with a small marker, trauma shears, a survival blanket, two sets of gloves, and two packages of compressed gods. That's actually quite a bit in that little kit. It's a kit.

If you're looking at the website, there's an intermediate and advanced BPD, the advanced BCD is going to have the bleeding control dressing from a quick lot. That's the one that's going to help promote a clot, and it can be useful in places, such as the groin or the axillary where you can't control bleeding with the tourniquet. You've got to be packed with. Right. I see that with the STB kit, like you said. And, I mean, it's just, it's really awesome to see that you're able to put so much in these little kits, especially some of these kits you have completely vacuum sealed, which makes them mean. even smaller and more compressed than just in an ion bag.

I mean, they're basically a soldier's eye attack is what they are. They don't have the needle or the NDA that the soldier might have in theirs. But, I mean, the cat's her to get the pressure dressing the cause, you know, if you have a quick fly and blood, you know, those are the things that you use to control major bleeding. Right. I'm going to give an example, and I'm not trying by any means to tell people they need to this but I know within training you know like you said our little Ifax were wrapped in plastic and it was one of those things that plastic was even used

for like a second chest wound that we had to use that plastic from the packaging to be able to bear down on their chest to seal off any more air going into the chest cavity and compressing their lung any more than it was so it's quite interesting because you know I see the vacuum sealed and I immediately think back to when we had our kits and where we we were taught the plastic wrapping was in itself a medical a medic tool in its own. We have the intermediate and the advanced VPD kits. Those actually have two chest fields in them.

So you can just open them up and they're like big stickers. You stick it over the entrance and exit boon. And they kind of, for the layperson, it's a good reminder to if you're looking at their chest, if you have, you know, you're looking at you have two chest fields to, oh yeah, I need to check their back as well. You know, so you turn them over and see if they have an excellent. Right. Because I don't think people realize, you know, it's sometimes the most dangerous wounds aren't exactly the wounds that you can see. Right. There's not a whole lot you can do with the whole way for somebody who gets shot in the torso.

Right. I need a trauma surgeon for that. The best thing you can do is recognize that that's what happened and then call my one right away or get into a trauma center. No, I think that's great. I'm loving these kits. Now, which one were you saying had the chest wound in it? I mean, the sticker. The chest seals. They're going to be in the intermediate version and the advanced BCD version of the bleeding control kit. Okay, I see it now.

No, I think that's great. I even like that you have a bleeding control trainer. So this is something that you could teach anybody to use. I think that's great. Yep, and that way you know that that's your training supply. You don't get it mixed up with your... with the one that you're going to use on yourself or, you know, somebody else if you have to. So, you know, that one's my trainer.

I practice with this one, and this one's for real life, so I don't end up using a tourniquet that I'm going to use on a patient and training. Right, and you know, that goes to show the best, well, the most well-trained individual is an individual who practiced, you know. It's one of those we've always said, you know, the best prepper is a practicing prepper. You know, you don't just buy the stuff and let it sit there. and then when it comes time, have no clue how to use it. I'm not going to buy a brand new car, sit there, and then never learn how to operate my own car or my own welder or whatever it is that I have.

Or I'm not going to buy a gun and leave it in the cabinet without training properly, so I know how to use my own weapon. Right. Love that on your website, and it has it, especially with this training kit, it says the top cause of preventable death in trauma is bleeding. 20% of people who have died from traumatic injuries could have survived with the quick bleeding control. That really sets in the fact that people really don't pay attention to how much of a difference they could make in just one situation. Right. And if you look at the website, if you look at resources across the top and you put your pressure on that and you scroll down to videos.

There's a whole much training videos so that you, if you do buy a kit, you can't find a lead control class near you. That you could watch these and get a good idea of how all your equipment and your kit and your kit works. Oh, I love that. It really does.

It has all of them on here. That is awesome. And you can download them and use them, yep. Well, for my listeners, you know, I listed the website and the Instagram because those are the two that I look at. But for my other ones, who are not Instagram. They do have Facebook. They do have it on YouTube and they are on Twitter as well.

So you're not limited to just one for those who don't have social media. I know you most likely YouTube. Go out there, check them out. I'm sure they have just as amazing content. They also have a lot of the videos that show how to use them post it directly on their face, on their YouTube. I mean, it's great and we appreciate what you do. But I mean, I think more injuries, you know, people keep or now worried and start about the whole active shooter thing. But I think people then forget about the number of injuries that are sustained during the summer from forwillin. I've seen someone cut themselves with the machete. I've seen someone have an accident with a chainsaw.

The most common injury I probably saw was fish hooks and trampolines. So I don't think people realize everyday things can actually be really, really bad. I've seen a compound break because of a trampoline, and it was pretty gruesome. And in the case of the, you know, people just say, oh, you've got a broken arm, but in the case that little girl who fell off the playground, I'd lacerated her artery, and, you know, she needed to tourniquette. So you just never know. Right.

And you never know what type of injury you could be dealing with or what type of condition that that individual is in. No, I think that's great. So for the listeners, if they were to just start out anywhere, what would you suggest for someone who's wanting to get into first aid or wanting to build one for their family, where you would suggest that they start? Is there a kit or is there a certain item?

I mean, what would you say? I'd say that bleeding control kits are a good start. You know, they're a different price range from basic to the advanced So you add the intermediate and the quick lot to the intermediate and the advanced, but then you also have the hyphen chest skills in there. So the price goes off to the basics, the intermediate to the advanced BCD. So that's a fairly inexpensive kid. Your listeners who are first responders or they're getting up for their school or their churches

will offer them a discount as well from the price that they see on the website. No, that's awesome. Actually, I think quite a few of our listeners, like our Thursday night show, Miles with Archangel Dynamics, jumps on with Dane. He actually is in that in the medical field itself as well. So it's pretty interesting to see how many people are actually involved in that. So this discount, is this something where they contact you directly or is there a code? Or what is it that they need to do to be able to, is it because of their employment? If, yeah, if they're employed by a sheriff's office at fire EMS agency, a hospital you call that customer service number, then again is 88, 68, 689, 6277, and they can set you up with a hundred prices.

Same thing for, you know, school. If somebody who's looking for their school or their church, they can contact me and we'll get them at this kind of price. So again, see Hoyt at NARScue.com. I think that's great. Thank you. I'm sure there are quite a few people who, like me, you know, want to be able to put our skill set as far as medical readiness a little bit further because I think, kind of like the commercial said, it really doesn't get as much attention as I think it should. And I know I have fallen short before. But, you know, you hit that thing where it hits a point is where your family's health and life is going to mean more than some new gadget or something else down the way. the roads so you said that you carry one or have one's located in the house if you don't mind my asking does you have does your wife keep one in her car as well a little kit there is actually a you know a kit in all my cars I have three daughters who drive they all have a kid in their car they know how to use them my wife has a kit her car

my wife and my oldest are registered nurses and then my younger two are teenagers was a teenager, one's 21, but they, I talked and how to use it, you know, God forbid they come upon something or need it for themselves. So we have them everywhere again. It's better to have it, not need it, and need it, not have it. No, I think that's great. God bless you, so many daughters. I think that's something we encounter in our household.

We have two girls, one boy, and it's never a dull moment. I think my girls probably end up in more stuff than my son does. so it's terrifying. There's not a kit for parenting, is there? No, no. And if you had that, I'd probably be the first one to buy, like, three of them, just so I had one for each child, so I knew what was going on. Yeah, we probably saw a lot of those, that's for sure.

No, I like what y'all are doing. I love that, you know, you're out there, both military, both civilians, both paramedic and first responders great. So it's great to see that you're not holding it to just one person. You're actually have this same quality all the way across the board from military to civilian. A lot of our employees or former service members or public safety members, not all, but a lot of them are. And we take it very seriously. A lot of us have treated people, treating patients, or paramedics.

or you know been in the military and treated people so we take it seriously we know that believe in Afghanistan or Daytona Beach Florida wherever it doesn't matter it's all the same so we just want to get the stuff out there and hopefully give good quality equipment and I find give you the resources to be able to know how to use it so what I wanted to ask you is I was looking through here and I know that most of the kits come with large gloves but But do you happen to be able to customize it to people who are a bit smaller? Because, like, for me, a large glove would probably just sag off my hand to the point that I'd have a hard time being able to fill while having them on. We could do custom kits if you wanted a smaller gloves in there.

We have to, basically have to make you a new car number. It's not just an easy to swap it out. Like, I wanted this one, but I wanted a small glove. We have to actually, all our kids, they're not sitting on the shelves or custom-made-to-order. when you order it. We have folks that have Carolina vocational rehab that build our kits for us. So it gives them

we have a flexible workforce that way. So it's a good partnership with them. No, that's great. I love it because I was looking on here and I see where you have gloves in sets, you know, if I wanted to just get a set and that's great. But I was looking at the kits and, you know,

in our household, I have to get extra large for my husband, small for me, and extra small for my children. So each of our kits have set gloves. I just didn't know if that would be the same way, you know, buying a general size set. Like in our household, we could all manage a medium. It would be a squeeze for my husband, but he could still feel what's going. You know what I mean? It's just trying to find a happy medium for everybody in the household because his size, I mean, it would be like a child putting on their father's clothes. You know, most people might use our products for adults,

so a large is a good fit for most people. even when your hands are sweaty and things like that, it's hard to get the gloves on, so having them a little bigger, it makes it easier. Right. It doesn't help that I'm a very small adult. I'm not getting any younger, but I'm not getting any bigger either, so it's like, my son is about the same size as me. So it's interesting to see how I have to adjust things in the household because I'm not your average-sized adult. No, I think that's great. Is there anything else that North American Rescue, my apology, I don't know where that's coming from, offers on top of the first aid and the classes?

We have kids of all kinds. Please, you know, they can contact us. We can customize kids. If we sell it, we can customize it. If you're looking for things that we don't sell, we don't do that. But most of the time that you're looking for something we sell in a bag, we can customize it. like the kids you want you know again we didn't fire an eight-packed but if you want a pack we can make it happen so we have the resources on the website for the

building control if you happen to be near Greenville South Carolina we have classes that where our home office is we have a training company and Las Vegas Botta those Red Rescue training that occasionally puts on classes as well for the stuff to see class so over cleaning control class So if you're anywhere near there, feel free to give the shot. No, I think that's great. I appreciate it. We'll probably go ahead and start winding up.

Is there anything else that you would like to say regarding yourself or your community or what it is you do with North American Rescue? No, ma'am. I just appreciate you having me on and spread the word. I think it's really important over my career, you know, doing a lot of critically injured adults and children, and I think this is something that is real important, you know, to get into the community because just like cardiac arrest and CPR, when we were cardiac arrest, the best outcomes for the patient because of the people

who are right next to when it happens. So, in the capable of it's going to be the same thing, so whoever's the closest, if they're going to give, I think it's our only pressure and then apply it to be incorrect. and stop bleeding, the patient's going to do a lot better. And everybody has a different response on the 911 system. So some people are 4 minutes. Some people are 10 or 20 or 30 out from the closest health. But again, you can believe that's a maximum of moral order in a couple of minutes.

So it's very important that the person next to you or you can help yourself. Right. So if everybody can save a lot of lives. I will ask this. Are your classes open to children? And if they are, what's the age range? I think the youngest we've had in our class with seven-year-old. Okay.

So, and then, you know, we've had, we've actually contacted by a lot of teenagers looking for classes because they're on social media and they see it and they're interested in. No, I think that's great. I know that's something in our household where I'm looking at taking a BLS. I've signed my 10-year-old up with it because, you know, it's one of those things I want, it doesn't do me any good if I'm the only one with the training and I'm the one hurt or unconscious.

You know, it's great to have more people with the skill set knowledge of being able to handle these situations and handle them calmly or with more composure than most people are going to have. It's going to help you do that. It's great to watch. Exactly. No, I appreciate it so much. Listeners, again, if you were interested in reaching out to them, you can reach them via
