Stop The Bleed Course

Course Synopsis:

Minutes count! Someone who is severely bleeding can bleed to death in as little as 5 minutes. That’s why bleeding control—keeping the blood inside the body—is the purpose of STOP THE BLEED® training.  A bleeding injury can happen anywhere. We’ve all seen it happen too often—on the news or in everyday life. Life-threatening bleeding can happen in people injured in serious accidents or disasters. Instead of being a witness, you can become an immediate responder because you know how to STOP THE BLEED®

Total course duration: 4 hrs

Intended Audience: A STOP THE BLEED® course is for people who are interested in learning this lifesaving skill. The American College of Surgeons STOP THE BLEED® campaign has trained over 1 million people including students, teachers, and community groups.

Wilderness First Aid

Course Synopsis:

Are you an outdoor enthusiast who loves to hike, camp, or explore the wilderness? If so, it’s important to be prepared for any situation that may arise while you’re out in the wild. That’s where wilderness first aid training comes in.

Wilderness first aid is a specialized type of training that teaches you how to provide medical care in a remote or outdoor setting where access to professional help may be limited. This type of training is essential for anyone who spends time in the great outdoors, as it can help you handle emergencies and injuries that may occur while you’re miles away from civilization.

But wilderness first aid training isn’t just for seasoned adventurers. It’s also a valuable skill for anyone who works in a profession that involves being outdoors, such as park rangers, outdoor educators, and environmental scientists.

This comprehensive 16-hour wilderness first aid course meets or exceeds the Boy Scouts of America Wilderness First Aid Curriculum and Doctrine Guidelines, 2017 Edition

Wilderness First Aid Course Includes

Information-filled slide presentation covering wilderness and remote first aid from a basic understanding of emergency response in an outdoor setting to specific techniques and considerations for a wide range of injuries and illnesses.

  • Preparation and Assessment
  • Preventing and Caring for Injuries and Illnesses
  • Environmental Hazards
  • Other Wilderness Considerations

Total course duration: 16 hrs

Emergency Medical Responder (EMR)

Course Synopsis:

The ASHI Emergency Medical Response training program provides a detailed and comprehensive approach for managing out-of-hospital medical emergencies prior to the arrival of EMS.

The program is designed to provide non-EMS responders more depth and exposure to standard first aid training topics to provide richer and more advanced training. It meets and exceeds workplace first aid training requirements and satisfies the desire to learn more than just basic first aid without the burden associated with EMS provider training and certification.

Emergency Medical Response provides comparable training to that of Emergency Medical Responder, the base-level training for EMS providers, although the program is not intended for training EMS providers or preparing students to be eligible for EMS provider testing and certification.

Total course duration: 47-50 hrs

Intended Audience:

This course is intended for individuals who are not EMS or healthcare providers but desire certification in Emergency Medical Response, such as:

  • Law enforcement officers
  • Correctional officers
  • Security personnel
  • Event and crowd control staff
  • Lifeguards
  • Park rangers
  • Workplace Emergency Response Team (ERT) members
  • Disaster team members
  • Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) members
  • Athletic trainers
  • Outdoor guides
