First Aid Rescue Adventure

Booking Information

Curriculum

WOLF will teach team members the practical aspects of how to care for others in their communities and the wilderness. Students receive certification in CPR and first aid. During the program we work with sheriff, fire, and search and rescue departments. Rescue teams learn and practice skills during simulated rescue scenarios. They are taught to assess the situation, record medical histories, create a plan, and implement appropriate rescue procedures. Teams are put to the test on the final night when they are called to the dramatic plane crash scene putting the skills they have learned to the ultimate test.
