Stop The Bleed, Save a Life

The American Society of Safety Professionals South Plains chapter met for their monthly meeting. They support occupational safety and health professionals in their efforts to prevent workplace injuries, illness, and fatalities. On August 20, 2019 hosted special guest Melissa Kemp, DHSc, PA-C, focused on the Stop-the-Bleed program that is meant to help during a bleeding emergency. While it was a brief overview, the information was invaluable.

The Stop-the-Bleed program is a national awareness campaign and call-to-action by the American College of Surgeons. It’s intended to encourage bystanders to become trained, equipped, and empowered to help in a bleeding emergency before help arrives. It was developed to create a protocol to decrease the mortality rate of intentional mass casualty events or active shooter events. The idea is to train bystanders in techniques to control bleeding in emergency situations. The training course is 90 minutes and includes a formal presentation and a hands-on practice of direct pressure application, wound packing, and use of a tourniquet.

Dr. Kemp discussed how Stop-the-Bleed helps save a life by taking simple actions immediately after the trauma and following the ABCs: Alert, Bleeding, Compression. When it is safe to do so, alert 911. If you’re not safe, then you can’t help, so make sure the scene is secure. Then identify the bleed on the victim. Is it life-threatening? Is there pooling, bleeding through, or limb deformities? Remove any bulky clothing that may absorb the blood, and in case the victim is bleeding from areas that could be hidden. Add compression to the wound. There are three areas of the body and how to apply compression: limbs, junctional, and body. A tourniquet can be applied to the limbs 2-3 inches above the wound and not on the joint. It should only be taken off by a medical professional. In the junctional areas (neck, torso, groin, armpit), pack the wound with clean gauze and apply pressure. Don’t apply too much pressure that you can’t tell that the bleeding has stopped. Part of the program is to train bystanders, who are first on the scene, to stop the bleeding and aid victims with life threatening injuries until medical professionals can arrive.

The ASSP South Plains Chapter also discussed their fundraiser that they will be posting on their website and their efforts to help the community of Lubbock. The South Plains Chapter meets every third Tuesday of the month. For more information, visit https://southplains.assp.org/.

Engineering Employee Spotlight

Meet Riley

Meet Riley Vane, he is an Engineering Assistant and works on development, site design, and general engineering. Riley is from Utah and studied at Brigham Young University where he earned his degree in Civil Engineering. He recently added a couple more credentials to his profile when he passed the Professional Engineer exam. He used the NCES materials extensively to help him study. However, he attributes most of his success to the notebook that contained his previously worked out problems.

“I wouldn’t want to do it again, but I’m happy it’s over,” Riley said about the feelings he had over passing the exam. “If you put the time upfront, it’s not necessarily a difficult test.”

What’s next?

Now that it’s over, Riley can focus on all of his other projects. He’s currently working on site designs for a yoga studio, a 500-acre plot in New Deal, and a residential development in Cooper. If that’s not enough to keep him busy, he has a couple of projects coming up soon. The one he’s most excited for is his work with Texas Tech University Health Science Center that includes reconstruction and helping produce a 10-year plan for the parking lots and the interior roads.

His work life is not his only source of excitement. Riley and his wife, who’s a pediatrician, are expecting their first child.  Soon he’ll have some extra company as he spends time outdoors doing what he enjoys, fishing and hunting.

If you have any questions or inquiries regarding Engineering projects, contact Riley at rvane@r2meng.com.

Environmental Engineering Employee Spotlight

Meet Marissa

Meet Marissa McLemore, she works in our Environmental Engineering department. Marissa assists R2M clients with Environmental Compliance, specifically with Storm Water & Waste Management. She is also part of R2M’s training team and focuses on Environmental Education. She grew up in Plainview, Texas and attended West Texas A&M University where she double-majored in Environmental Science and Biology. Marissa recently passed the Certified Hazardous Materials Manager exam. As a CHMM, she will be able to make a significant impact on her community by protecting the environment and the public’s health and safety. In her position, she will keep up with the advancements in technology and changes in compliance requirements that occur frequently in hazardous materials management. To prepare for her exam she spent hours studying flash cards and doing a lot of research while snacking on plain M&Ms.

“I’m glad it’s over,” Marissa said with a proud look on her face. At least for now she can revel in her success, until she has to renew her certification five years from now or choose to continue her education and gain higher credentials in handling hazardous materials.

What’s Next?

Until that time comes, she has some work to look forward to in the next couple of weeks. She’s currently updating R2M’s Storm Water Training by putting together better presentations for clients. She’s also creating a more thorough checklist for the Waste Program. Then Marissa will be out of the office for four weeks on what she calls the “Permian Tour”. She’ll be traveling to clients in Odessa, Troy, and even as far as South Dakota to perform quarterly audits.

When Marissa is not working, or studying for her next certification, she enjoys reading historical fiction, hiking in the canyons, or going on adventures with her new husband.  

If you have any questions or inquiries regarding Environmental Engineering, please contact Marissa at mmclemore@r2meng.com.
