Wilderness First Responder

A Wilderness First Responder (WFR) is a certification designed for individuals who may be in remote or outdoor environments where professional medical help is not immediately available. WFR training equips participants with essential skills to assess and manage medical emergencies, often for extended periods, until more advanced care can be reached. This training covers topics such as patient assessment, trauma management, wilderness survival techniques, and evacuation strategies. It is particularly valuable for outdoor professionals, guides, and those who engage in extended outdoor activities, ensuring they can respond effectively in challenging situations.
