Description
This course is offered as a component of the Immersion Semester in which six interrelated courses are taught in an integrated system. This course focuses on medical response when help is miles away and dialing 911 is not an option. Lecture and hands-on simulation sessions help students prepare to handle emergency situations that involve prolonged patient care, severe environments, and improvised gear. Students will have an opportunity to receive Wilderness First Responder certification through a nationally recognized medical education provider. Taking the course does not guarantee certification. *Only offered as part of the Immersion Semester.
