SOLO Wilderness First Aid Hybrid Course & CPR

Location: Virtual, and Gilsland Farm Maine Audubon Center, 20 Gilsland Farm Road, Falmouth, ME 04105

The ability to apply basic backcountry first aid is vital for any outdoor enthusiast, whether it’s for yourself or others. Moving beyond urban first aid, this course teaches the skills necessary to identify and treat medical issues common to wilderness settings and to prepare for long-term care scenarios. Under the hybrid Wilderness First Aid model, you will be required to view roughly 12 hours of the content virtually at your own pace, followed by a single day practicum led by one of AMC’s professional staff members. Participants who successfully demonstrate the skills taught during the virtual and practical components of the course will be issued a SOLO Wilderness First Aid certification. This course may be used to recertify a current SOLO Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certification. A CPR certification will be offered in the evening of the practical day, this is optional.
