Educator’s Trauma Aid Kit (E.T.A.K.)

Sealed Contents Include: Cat Tourniquet, Swat Tourniquet, Compressed Gauze, Nasopharyngeal Airway,

Emergency Trauma Dressing, Pair Hyfin Vent Chest Seals, Pair of Nitrile Gloves

Why: Every school in the U.S. has fire extinguishers and practices routine fire drills throughout the school year. Not one student has died in a school fire for several decades. Most of the students who die as the result of an intentional or unintentional trauma lose their life due to blood loss, with loss of airway being the second leading cause. Yet very few schools acutally have quality trauma kids with modern tourniquets, pressure dressings, and chest seals on site. 

We want to fill that need by providing quality medical supplies and simple yet effective training to school staff who wish to receive it.

*The training & medical Kit (ETAK) will be provided for Free (Medical Kits built at cost by CCRT with funding provided by local businesses and individuals)
