How many casualties can the School Mass Crisis Incident Kit treat?

The School Mass Crisis Incident Kit contains 40 individual aid kits, providing simultaneous hemorrhage control capability for up to 40 casualties. The kit is designed for distribution across classrooms, cafeterias, auditoriums, and other high-occupancy spaces in a school building.

How should this kit be deployed in a school?

The kit is designed for pre-positioned deployment throughout the school building — one or more individual aid kits placed in each high-occupancy area (classroom, cafeteria, gymnasium, administrative office). This ensures that bleeding control supplies are within immediate reach regardless of where in the building an incident occurs, without requiring centralized access to a single storage location.

Can non-medically trained teachers and students use this kit?

Yes. Each individual aid kit includes just-in-time pictorial bleeding control instructions designed for use by untrained bystanders. The Stop the Bleed philosophy — endorsed by the American College of Surgeons, FEMA, and DHS — specifically trains and equips non-medical civilians to apply tourniquets and pressure dressings in the critical first minutes before EMS arrival.

Is this kit compliant with school safety mandates?

Many states have passed or are considering legislation requiring bleeding control kits in schools, modeled on AED/defibrillator mandates. The School Mass Crisis Incident Kit from North American Rescue is specifically designed for school environments and aligns with guidance from the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma, NAEMSP, and DHS STOP THE BLEED® program recommendations for institutional bleeding control preparedness.

What is the difference between this kit and the SRO Crisis Response Kit?

The SRO Crisis Response Kit (MEDTAC0445) is a single multi-patient kit designed for law enforcement school resource officers to carry on their person and use for self-aid and buddy-aid. The School Mass Crisis Incident Kit (85-0411) is a 40-casualty distributed deployment system designed for pre-placement throughout a school building for use by any staff or bystander — a completely different operational model.

Is the School Mass Crisis Incident Kit CoTCCC-recommended?

The kit is built around CoTCCC-recommended components for the leading preventable causes of traumatic death in active-threat incidents. It is designed for school-incident response using civilian and TCCC hemorrhage control protocols.

What training is required to use the School Mass Crisis Incident Kit?

Minimum: Stop The Bleed for tourniquet and gauze. Chest seal and ARS require TCCC-level provider training. The kit allows minimally-trained responders to initiate hemorrhage control immediately.

How many casualties can this kit treat?

The multi-casualty configuration provides supplies for treating multiple casualties. Verify specific quantities in the product listing.

What is the NSN or procurement path for the School Crisis Kit?

Available through MED-TAC International. Schools and agencies may use FEMA Homeland Security grants, state LE funding, or cooperative purchasing for procurement.

Where should the School Crisis Kit be staged?

Stage in visible, accessible locations: main office, gymnasium, near AED cabinet. Follow ALICE, ALERRT, or district-specific crisis response staging guidelines.
