Don’t expect to sit in a classroom watching the time and waiting for the end of the day. From the get-go, participants are challenged to solve various emergencies with the skills and knowledge that are layered throughout the day. That could mean leading the management of a helicopter crash scene, assessing patients to figure out their injuries and medical conditions, splinting fractures or stopping bleeds.
This course will equip you with hands-on, tangible skills relevant for a range of settings from the workplace to weekend adventures. Remember to bring outdoor clothing so that the weather doesn’t get in the way of outdoor scenarios.
