Remote Area First Responder
Remote area responder training differs significantly from conventional EMS courses and other programs that are oriented toward the urban environment. This course teaches what to do with a medical emergency when help is miles away and calling 999 isn’t an option. We prepare students for emergency situations that involve prolonged patient care, severe environments and advanced use of first aid equipment.
Course Outline
• The General Principles of Wilderness and Rescue Medicine with an emphasis on the prevention and identification of medical emergencies, appropriate technology, and risk management.
• Patient assessment and emergency care including CPR, basic Life support, and the emergency treatment of anaphylaxis and asthma.
• Environmental Medicine including altitude illness, hypothermia and heat illness, frostbite and cold injury; lightning, submersion, and environmental toxins.
• Remote Area Medicine including the assessment and treatment of common medical problems.
• Musculoskeletal Problems including unstable and stable injuries, overuse syndromes, and dislocations.
• Wound Management including open fractures, lacerations, and burns.
