FLT is excited to partner with Wild Maine Med and Falmouth High School on a wilderness first aid class specifically for teens! This class is open to any interested teen (you don’t need to live in Falmouth to participate).
Wilderness first aid courses are two-day (16hr) courses that provide specialized training in medical emergencies that may occur while adventuring outside. From trauma-related injuries to medical issues, participants engage in hands-on scenarios to gain the knowledge and skills to assess, stabilize, and treat injuries or illnesses until further help can arrive. Unlike traditional lecture-based first aid courses, this course is based around hands-on practice, enabling participants to gain the understanding necessary to accurately assess emergency situations and build the skills needed to respond effectively.
Dates: April 12th and 13th (8 hours each day)
Location: Falmouth High School
Cost: $235 for SOLO Wilderness First Aid Certification (additional $45 for optional CPR certification)
Ages: 14 and up
