Wilderness First Aid (WFA)
The Wilderness First Aid (WFA) course is built for outdoor enthusiasts, trip leaders, guides, and field staff who need more than basic first aid. It provides a strong foundation in wilderness medicine, focusing on prevention, patient assessment, and treatment of environmental illnesses and traumatic injuries in remote settings.
Participants learn to recognize and stabilize life-threatening conditions and effectively initiate rescue when necessary equipping them with practical, real-world skills for backcountry emergencies.
