Wilderness First Responder

WFR Certification & Recertification

A Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certification or recertification is the "gold standard" for gaining skills in emergency medical care in remote environments like rivers, mountains, and deserts where traditional medical help is limited. Tailored for outdoor enthusiasts, educators, guides, park rangers, and SAR team members, WFR training equips individuals to address medical emergencies and injuries in isolated settings. The goal is to empower participants to respond efficiently, offering initial care until advanced medical assistance becomes available.
