Guide Medic - BMG first aid course Part 3 (of 3 parts)

A two-day (3 part) CPD Guide Medic remote first aid course.
Part 1: Online learning and assessment prior to the course
Part 2: Classroom learning with practical sessions, medical / first aid principals and theory
Part 3: On the mountain application of skills and knowledge in difficult terrain and incident management.

Guides can take the course as either;
OPTION 1: First Aid Certification requirement and 1 core CPD point.
or
OPTION 2: 2 noncore and 1 core CPD points.
However, all 3 elements have to be completed. This will be delivered by Owen Samuel (Paramedic) and other members of faculty comprising guide paramedics and doctors. This course aims to mesh together dealing with a technical problem using the rope and tailored first aid specific to these environments and accidents. The contact time will be trauma related but as medical issues will be revisited in the online element, the course will fulfil all requirements for governing body award first aid. This course will have a 3-year validity.
However, as we seek to train you in the use of prescription drugs there will be an online refresher course after 1 ½ years. Greater level of responsibility calls for more regular training.
