YCFLS launched their Whole Blood Program on November 18, 2025! Battalion Chief 1 and Battalion Chief 2 each carry a unit of whole blood and all of the administration equipment! This brings Region 7 to a total of six jurisdictions and 10-units of blood being carried on the street to manage hemorrhagic shock!

Regarding the recently implemented Whole Blood Program- "For the everyday citizen, what we are seeing is that we are managing our trauma patients better. We are essentially incorporating and managing a process that helps treat patients who have been exposed to violence and have at least a chance to survive."
