Rec First Aid Course is the course you need if you work or play in the outdoors.

During most first aid incidents your patient will be indoors in a urban environment and usually has a short ambulance wait time.  An incident which occurs on the side of a mountain in adverse weather conditions may have a wait time of hours before mountain rescue gets to you.  We teach you how to keep your patient warm and care for him/her in the long term in adverse weather conditions. We aim to equip you with skills and confidence to stabilise the situation until help arrives, you will learn skills on this course  which are not taught on basic first aid training.
