CORE WILDERNESS COURSES
Wilderness Medicine refers to providing medical care in any situation where definitive care—such as an ambulance or hospital—is more than an hour away or more than a mile from a road. The term encompasses scenarios where medical care must be adapted to limited resources and delayed access to advanced healthcare, emphasizing skills and decision-making in challenging, austere conditions. While "wilderness" often brings to mind remote, scenic areas, the concept applies broadly to various settings, including Rural areas far from professional rescue services and Urban environments affected by disasters, like earthquakes, where emergency systems are delayed or overwhelmed.
SPECIALITY COURSES
GeoMedic™ is for individuals who have passion and interests in disaster response and humanitarian crises where access to equipment, providers, and definitive care is minimal or unavailable.
The First 5 Minutes Course is focused on immediate life threats during the first five minutes of a medical crisis. The person isn’t breathing, they have no heartbeat, or they have major bleeding.
