COURSE DESCRIPTION
Prepare for the unexpected with this fun, hands-on introduction to wilderness medicine, taught over two days at Deer Hill’s Basecamp in Mancos, Colorado.
You’ll learn the Patient Assessment System, how to provide effective first aid treatments for injuries and illnesses common in the outdoors, and how to make appropriate evacuation decisions. Upon completion of the class, participants will receive a Wilderness First Aid certification.
CLASS FORMAT AND PERSONAL PREPAREDNESS
Classroom lectures will be integrated with practical scenarios. The classroom environment generally lends itself to a pair of comfy shoes or slippers. Practice scenarios will take place both inside and outside. Stage (moulage) blood and make-up are frequently used to emphasize the reality of a scenario.
RECERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
NOLS Wilderness Medicine graduates may take a Wilderness First Aid (WFA) course to recertify their WAFA, WFR or WEMT (wilderness portion only). NOLS Wilderness Medicine certifications will be afforded a one-year re-entry period after expiration within which to recertify. This course cannot be used as a WFR or WEMT re-certification course if you hold a certification from a provider other than NOLS Wilderness Medicine.
If recertifying, you must submit a photocopy of your current certification card(s) on the first day of the course. We cannot issue you a new certification until we verify your previous training.
