Remote Emergency Care Level 2 Course
A two day, 16-hour outdoor first aid course that is recognised by the MLTUK, BCU, RYA, MBLA and other outdoor NGB’s.
On this course, we focus on dealing with incidents far from medical help with the minimal equipment you would carry while participating in or leading outdoor activities. Again the emphasis is on practical skills with plenty of hands-on practice including lots of outdoor scenarios.
This course can be tailored to the requirements of special interest groups and client including specific scenarios involving lines and harness or “in water” exercises.
