Sponsored by Above & Beyond Alaska, Wilderness Advanced First Aid is a 40-hour course designed to provide elementary skills in remote care. Based on recommendations from the Wilderness Medical Society and evidence-based research, our curriculum focuses on making sound decisions regarding patient evacuation, as well as skills for extended care.
