What to Expect
Base Medical's courses are all delivered following a hybrid model. Here's what you can expect for each course type. -
This course covers the foundational concepts of wilderness medicine. A Base Medical Wilderness First Aid course is primarily designed for non-medical recreational users and outdoor professionals who will most likely be the initial first aid provider in outdoor areas where advanced help, evacuation, and access to definitive care may be delayed. WFA is the assessment of and basic treatment given to an ill or injured person in an area where advanced help and access to definitive care is not easily accessible.
This course includes 8 hours of self-paced online coursework, followed by an 8 hour day of in-person practical training with a Base Medical instructor. Whether for an organization or an independent, public course, your instructor will coordinate with you on the time, location, and details of your in-person training day.
And yes, we have partnered with CorpsTHAT, and Rocky Mountain Youth Corps to spearhead the first wilderness first aid course for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing! See our “WFA in ASL” Link in the top right corner of our webpages.

A Wilderness First Responder certification requires a greater time commitment than the WFA certification. It includes 24 hours of online coursework followed by 40 hours (4-5 days) of in-person practical training. The WFR certification classes also include an extended night-time class session on the third or fourth day of class. This session includes a realistic scenario in which students get hands-on practice in extended patient assessment, care, and evacuation planning and execution. If you have questions about this aspect of the course, please contact your instructor or the training director at trainingdirector@base-medical.com
