Wilderness & Remote First Aid Course

Event Details

Red Cross training and certification for Scouters needing Wilderness and Remote First Aid skills and certification for High Adventure Trips. This course meets the BSA requirement for at least one current trained leader in Wilderness First Aid on High Adventure Treks.

The course requires that participants have current CPR/AED skills prior to taking the course.  ARC, AHA or similar evidence of recent training is a prerequisite.

A blended learning course for CPR/AED skills will be offered prior to each course but must be signed up for two weeks before the WFA course.  If you are interested please contact Don Ray at (734) 455-7214 or email: djray@comcast.net

Who:  Any Scout leader or mature youth at least 14 years old needing Wilderness First Aid skills.

This training is considered supplemental training and can be reported on your training record at the site below: https://myscouting.scouting.org (The WFA Training Code is N02)

These courses will provide participants a foundation in first aid principles and skills to be able to respond to emergencies and give care in areas that do not have immediate medical services (EMS) response.

Each course is approximately 16 hours long (in 2 sessions, Saturdays from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm) and requires participants to complete both sessions. Participants will be required to apply hands on skills that will be covered in class. The course fee includes a useful American Red Cross workbook and reference cards. Participants should wear comfortable clothing that enables them to preform first aid skills including focused assessments of simulated injuries.

The course will be limited to a maximum of 40 participants. Certification is for 2 years.

Questions on recertification or becoming current in CPR/AED should be directed to Don Ray at (734) 455-7214 or email: djray@comcast.net
