About the event
Wilderness environments create special situations not usually encountered in an urban or suburban environment. When a person becomes injured, or ill, in the wilderness the time and distance to traditional emergency medical services may be hours or even days. First Aid providers in a wilderness setting will be faced with limited resources, must care for a patient for a much longer time, and need to make decisions about if, when, and how fast to evacuate an ill or injured person.
The goal of this training is to help participants develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to respond to a medical emergency in a remote or wilderness setting. Our Wilderness First Aid training includes real-life scenarios and hands-on skill practice to enhance the participant experience.
Topics & skills covered during this course:
Initial assessment -responsive and unresponsive.
