Extra minutes can save lives. Know where your bleed kit is located in your community.

The Bleed Kit Locator map identifies HeartSafe NHS-approved, unlocked, standalone, and limpet bleed kit dispensers available to the public, freely accessible for public use. We follow the AACE (Association of Ambulance Chief Executives) recommendations. The map allows the public to check in their community where bleed kits are closest to your place of home or work. The map identifies kits that are registered by their owners throughout the UK and are listed on the map as they are happy to share access in the event of an emergency. Anyone owning and providing one of these bleed kit unlocked dispensers in their community can freely register its availability here.

 

The map is to encourage people to learn the whereabouts of their nearest bleed kit dispenser in advance of ever needing to use one in an emergency. Having this knowledge will save time once you ring 999 and make contact with the emergency services.

 

These kits have been endorsed by the NHS and SWASFT (the South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust), the fifth-largest ambulance service in the UK, operating across 10,000 square miles and serving a population of over 5.7 million people. A 999 call to the trust will direct you (if required) to the nearest community bleed kit in the SWASFT region.

 

Only approved medical items supplied for the Bleed Kit by HeartSafe/Bleed Kit Partnership are to be used and registered on the Bleed Kit map. The Bleed Kit is the responsibility of the individual or organisation that registered their Bleed Kit on the HeartSafe Bleed Kit map. This includes replacing these items by the specified due date, regardless of whether the kit includes a dispenser or not.

 

We are unable to guarantee that a bleed control kit will always be available in an emergency. Once we are advised that a kit has been deployed or removed, every effort is made to replace it for future deployment. Our aim is to ensure we maintain the bleed kit locator map to provide the most accurate and up-to-date information possible.

 

*Please note that kits with restricted access are in places like malls, so they will not be accessible during hours when the building is locked and closed.

How Does The Map Work?

The Bleed Kit Partnership...

HeartSafe and Avon and Somerset Police have successfully partnered to increase the number of bleed kits available to the community. So far, this collaboration has funded over 500 bleed kits, which are either attached to existing HeartSafe defibrillator cabinets or wall-mounted in prominent locations across the Avon and Somerset region. Please see the map to find out more about where these locations are.

Catastrophic Bleed?

Is this an emergency?

Call 999, ask for the ambulance service and follow their instructions.

If you believe a person has suffered a catastrophic bleed, immediately ring either 999 or 112 and ask for the ambulance service. They will advise you on what action to take and either inform you where your nearest bleed kit is located or ask if you have a bleed kit. The operator will remain on the line and ask you a series of questions which should only take you a few moments and advise you on what steps to take to assist in emergency.

This is not an emergency
