Service Description
The Wilderness Advanced First Aid course is the ideal entry-level training for outdoor adventurers and professionals who may need to provide patient care when help is delayed for hours or even days. This course emphasizes essential lifesaving skills, patient assessment, field care for common injuries and illnesses, environmental conditions, and effective reporting for rescue assistance. With a minimum of 36 hours of instruction in the United States and 40 hours in Canada (with variations in other countries), the course combines in-class learning through lectures, discussions, patient assessment drills, simulations, case study reviews, and skills labs. Participants will gain the knowledge and confidence to deliver care in challenging situations when immediate help is not available.
