What to Do If Someone Is Stabbed
A stabbing is a medical emergency. If you encounter someone who has been stabbed:
- Call 911 immediately — quick medical attention can save lives.
- Apply firm pressure to the wound with a clean cloth to help control bleeding.
- Do not remove any object lodged in the wound; this can worsen bleeding.
- Keep the victim calm and still to prevent further injury.
- Provide any information to police to assist in the investigation.
Remember, prompt action and calling for help are critical.
