More and more events like this are happening daily. Retailers need to become more prepared, less adverse to the reality this will likely happen to them, and most of all, start to prepare their associates to save their own or others lives with very simple trauma first aid training. LP/AP/ORC employees should most certainly have the knowledge and training on how to sustain life if something horrific happens at their establishment.

Does your guard service offer training in emergency trauma care? Is your staff trained in the use of tourniquets? Violence in retail is at an all time high. LP professionals, store associates, guard services should all have this training, carry and know how to use this equipment. This is what Trilogy Safety Solutions does. We provide top tier training, backed by decades of experiences in law enforcement with countless live saves documented. Please reach out if you’re interested. https://lnkd.in/gc9_CGyd

It’s unfortunate it takes these types of events for companies to realize their policies and training are outdated and no longer reflective of todays threats.

Another example of the extreme violence in retail. Tragic.

ASIS just posted a great article on retail violence. It’s unfortunate one of the most important areas not addressed is having trained personnel to deal with life threatening injuries caused by this type violence. These are easily understood concepts and skills that anyone can learn to apply to a potentially life-threatening injury. Having a “stop the bleed” kit isn’t enough.

Emergency Trauma Care for Retail Professionals - 4 hour course provides your associates the skills, training, and confidence to treat a life-threatening injury until advance medical care arrives. - backed by the safest, most up to date practices and methodologies. - drastically reduce your company liability and help keep your associates and customers safe.

Violence against retail professionals and inside retail establishments is at the highest levels ever recorded. Retailers are contacting suspects daily, whether it is a “greet and engage” philosophy or for apprehension, yet they are not training to address PREVENTABLE life-threatening injuries. Retailer AP professionals need training in emergency trauma care, just as law enforcement saw the need 10-15 years ago and began implementing training with tourniquets. Let us be the catalyst to keep your people safe and lower your organizations liability. https://lnkd.in/gXkMJNKq
