This outdoor first aid training is a two day course conforming to the requirements of the MLTUK, BCU, RYA and other outdoor governing bodies. We focus on dealing with incidents far from medical help with the minimal equipment you would carry while participating in or leading outdoor activities. Again the emphasis is on practical skills with plenty of hands-on practice including lots of outdoor scenarios.

The course will provide vital first aid essentials such as CPR and Accident Procedures and consider the practicalities of these protocols in the outdoors. It is a 16 hour outdoor REC course and therefore meets the requirements of NGB qualifications such as ML and SPA.

Outdoor first aid training covers the core skills of first aid applied in the outdoors whilst also looking at major injuries such as broken bones, head and spinal injuries and hypo and hyperthermia.  As with all our courses we will use our experience of working in remote environments to look at the practicalities of applying these core skills in the outdoors.

If you'd like to discuss which course is best for you then please don't hesitate to get in touch.  We are also happy to set up bespoke courses for organisations and groups.
