Rural, remote, and wilderness environments create special situations not usually encountered in a city or suburban environment. With an ASHI Wilderness First Aid class, first aid providers in a remote setting will be better prepared to respond with appropriate first aid training when faced with limited resources, longer times to care for someone, and decisions about when and how fast to evacuate an ill or injured person. Price includes WFA Certificate, food, and lodging during the course, and a student manual.

Information-filled presentation covering wilderness and remote first aid from a basic understanding of emergency response in an outdoor setting to specific techniques and considerations for a wide range of injuries and illnesses.
