All of our outdoor First Aid courses look at how to manage the situation when the ambulance does not turn up in 10 minutes time and are appropriate if your work or leisure place is remote. Our professional first aid trainers all have an active interest and commitment to the outdoor environment and fully understand the issues, dilemmas and judgments required when dealing with incidents in potentially hostile remote environments making the training highly relevant to you needs. http://www.paddle2climb.co.uk/2008/10/outdoor_first_aid.html http://www.paddle2climb.co.uk/2008/10/outdoor_first_aid.html 1st Aid Mon, 27 Oct 2008 16:03:17 +0000 4 Star Leader Award - Training (New BCU/UKCC syllabus) A 2 day training course designed to prepare candidates for the 4 Star Leader Assessment.
