First Aid and Basic Life Support Training in the Wilderness
This training was the first step toward the creation of a specialized wilderness first aid course. This work supports the need to reinforce training for nonmedical personnel by integrating regionally specific topics. This experience permitted the rise of a working group that proposed a medical kit as well as first aid protocols for workers in isolated areas.
