SUMMARY:3 day Wilderness First Aid Course
DESCRIPTION:The course will run for 3 full days from Saturday 18th February till Monday 20th February in Jinja. \nThe 3 day course includes Basic CPR and First Aid\, assessment\, trauma and medical emergencies\, Uganda specific emergency transport ideas\, and an overview of African illnesses. \nMCU members who wanted to take one of these courses will become certified through ECSI. This 2 year certification is an internationally recognised qualification. The card is digital which means no waiting on Ugandan post and you have your certification within days. \nIn the US\, first aid courses with CPR cost around $80-$100 per person and Wilderness First Aid courses $200-$300 per person. \nTo make the cost easy we have a standard price of $50/ person\, plus $15 for the online book. \nThe price is payable on the first day of the course. This is based on minimum uptake requirements of $500 (so 10 people). Supposing there are less people attending a course than the minimum\, the price per person adjusts to reach the minimum uptake. For example 5 people wanting to do the 3 day Wilderness first aid would need to pay $100/ person for the course to go ahead. Enrollment beyond the minimum uptake is an additional $50 per person. \nHaley Buffman is an Emergency Care and Safety Institute (ECSI) and American Heart Association (AHA) Instructor. She has held a Wilderness EMT-B certification since 2004. She also has 10 years of guiding experience\, 6 years of teaching experience\, and can tailor the course towards the Ugandan perspective on emergency medical response. This will be Haley’s 4th winter in Uganda and she understands the unique challenges emergencies present in sub-Saharan Africa. \nPlease sign up here if you’d like to take part https://goo.gl/forms/dXuJjhvO7szTbwW42 \nPlease let Haley (haleybuffman@gmail.com) or Laura (laurabierer@gmail.com) know if you have any more questions. \n
