Everyone, young or old, should know basic first aid. Even more, they should know how to administer first aid under the most challenging circumstances.
Whether you’re out camping and suffer an injury, have an emergency while playing sports or need these skills in a genuine crisis situation, you’ll be glad to have them. The people you help will be even more relieved that you took the time to develop these skills.
Make no mistake about it: These are the skills that not only help you to survive, but that help you to save lives, as well.
We teach wilderness first aid, which differs a bit from standard first aid training. Wilderness first aid not only provides you with life-saving skills. It also prepares you to apply those skills in stressful situations and under conditions that are far less than ideal.
Delayed medical transport, limited resources, unreliable or no communications: This training provides you with the skills you need to tackle such challenges.
These first aid skills have obvious applications in natural disaster scenarios–hurricanes, etc.–where help may be slow in arriving and where you may have to make independent decisions that could save someone’s life.
The training addresses:
- Medical emergencies
- Lifesaving steps
- Bone and joint injuries
- Insect and animal bites and stings
- Wounds
- Environmental injuries
- Herbal medicines
Of all the survival skills you can invest in learning, first-aid should be among the foremost. We’ll teach you skills you can rely on in the most desperate and trying situations, but remember that these skills are just as useful and life-saving when a medical emergency manifests in an office, restaurant or anywhere else you happen to be.
Why should you trust our training? Our instructors all have backgrounds in the Special Forces, and medical training that was designed to help them stay alive when help was far away and long in arriving.
You owe it to yourself to develop field first-aid skills, and someone else just might end up owing you their life because you took the time to learn.
