The outdoors can be a fun and exhilarating place to explore and find wonder, however, it doesn't come without a price. Accidents can happen and when they do, you need to be ready.
This course teaches advanced skills to be used in emergencies when help from professional first responders may be far away or delayed. People who enjoy outdoor sports such as rock climbing, camping, boating, hunting, off roading, hiking, or simply live in rural areas will benefit from this training. This course goes far beyond what you may know as "first aid." While it contains substantial medical information and teaches skills required for medical emergencies in the wild, the deeper purpose is to train participants to manage acute situations.
Emergencies most often call for a leader to be directive, up to and after the scene is safe and the patient is stabilized. You may find this one of the most valuable programs you ever completed. Based on the Boy Scouts of America Wilderness First Aid Curriculum and Doctrine Guidelines, this course aligns with OSHA’s Best Practices for Workplace First Aid Training Programs.
