Wilderness First Aid Training
September 9 @ 8:00 am - September 10 @ 5:00 pm

Students learn how to prevent some emergencies and what to do should one arise and help is not readily available. This course is designed for situations where help may take a long time to get to the patient.

Course content includes:
