Wilderness First Aid 2020
Covid-19 Update:
Wilderness First Aid will be held on the weekend of May 16 – 17.
The first 12 hours will be taught virtually. The trainer will schedule the final four hours in person at a later date. You will be contacted with the specifics for the class after May 12th.
Learn about the new practices that go way beyond what Scouting leaders may already know as "first aid." This will help you cope with medical emergencies in the wild and perhaps more importantly, to be a more effective manager in any crisis.
This course is a BSA Policy Requirement. At least one leader in each group, not just unit, must have this certification for high adventure camps. So, if your unit has a trek that will be broken into multiple groups you will need one leader per group trained.
