Wilderness First Aid
Wilderness First Aid is a comprehensive program for those who live, work and play in remote or isolated areas. Students are prepared with the skills and knowledge to treat injuries and promote recovery when they are hours, or even days, away from emergency medical aid. Topics include: cold exposure, dental emergencies, burns, gunshot wounds, broken bones, stomach ailments, spinal injuries and animal bites. Learn how to improvise first aid supplies, transport a casualty to safety, arrange for medical help, and meet the special challenges of wilderness first aid. This is not a survival course--there are no lessons on what to eat or how to build a shelter. Wilderness First Aid is about preparing for an emergency, and making the right decision to ensure your own safety and that of others. If you have ever been isolated from professional medical help, even if just for a few hours, then Wilderness First Aid is the ideal course for you.

Prerequisite: Valid St. John Ambulance Standard First Aid and Basic Rescuer(Level C) CPR certificates.
Duration: 32 hours
Cost:   $279.00
