Remote First Aid- Canadian Red Cross

We’ll be back in the spring with more Wilderness First Aid courses. If you’re interested in securing your spot early or joining our waitlist, contact us today to stay updated on upcoming dates. 

This 20-hour course is designed for people who work or live in remote locations, or for outdoor recreation enthusiasts. It builds on Canadian Red Cross Standard First Aid / CPR-C content with additional skills focused on remote and wilderness settings.

Participants also learn extended care strategies for up to 24 hours. This course takes place outdoors and requires more physical activity and endurance than typical first aid training.
