The WFR Bridge course is for those that already have a WAFA certification, and want to add on the additional protocols to achieve Wilderness First Responder status.

Recognizing life-threatening medical symptoms for kids and adults is crucial for any parent, professional or concerned citizen. As outdoor educators and farmers at Blackwood Land, we believe this knowledge is invaluable whether you live in an urban area or leading a trip into the wilderness. In this course, offered by the prestigious Wilderness Medical Associates, you will:

• Manage medical emergencies when hospitals and rescue services may not be available.
• Learn from medical professionals with significant patient care and backcountry experience.
• Be prepared for emergencies that involve prolonged patient care, severe environments, and improvised equipment.
• Have fun while developing confidence in your ability to care for emergencies!
