Wilderness Advanced First Aid is comprehensive medical training designed for remote professionals or wilderness leaders who venture into remote and challenging environments. Wilderness Medicine differs significantly from standard first aid courses and other training that are oriented toward urban environments. This course teaches how to manage medical emergencies when hospitals and rescue services may not be available for an extensive time period. We prepare students for emergency situations that involve prolonged patient care, severe environments, and improvised equipment.

Training is suitable for those who take people out on the land, including land-based program leaders, staff and guides. Part of the course is taught outside.

This course will be taught by Arctic Response on March 24-28, 2025 and is brought to you in partnership with The NWT Recreation and Parks Association and Supporting Wellbeing.
