from definitive medical care. Classroom lectures and demonstrations are combined with realistic scenarios where
mock patients will challenge you to integrate your learning. At the end of the course, you’ll have the knowledge,
skills and ability to make sound decisions in emergency situations. Learning takes place both in the classroom and
in outdoor settings regardless of weather conditions. Come prepared for wet, muddy, cold or hot environments.
