Wilderness First AID Course
WILDERNESS FIRST AID COURSE
AUDIENCE
Adventurers, travellers, farmers and remote site workers who are often far from hospitals and ambulances. We have had a wide variety of students on previous courses including school teachers with no medical experience, and those with years of medical experience such as ops medics, doctors and paramedics. Our students also have a variety of bush experience from casual day walkers to expedition mountaineers. We believe such a mix is important to ensure a stimulating learning experience for all.
FEATURES
The course consists of 2 phases, in the theory phase a set of lectures are scheduled for weekday evenings over a number of weeks. Each lecture session consists of a quiz to assess the topics already covered, a few lectures and a practical session. This is followed by a practical phase which takes 2 to 3 days. These days are spent continuously in the bush practising the skills that were covered in the theory phase.
