SUMMARY:Hybrid SOLO Wilderness First Responder course November 5th to 9th
DESCRIPTION:Hybrid SOLO Wilderness First Responder course NOVEMBER 5 th to 9 th\nSOLO has begun a Hybrid WFR course. The participant does an online course that covers the first 4 days (at your pace) and then is in person for the last 5 days. This new model is great for those having a hard time getting 9 days off for the original course. The one thing you must complete is the 4-day online portion before the 5-day course start date.  \nWhat will you learn \nSOLO’s Hybrid Wilderness First Responder course covers the same content as the traditional Wilderness First Responder. The difference between the programs is that the hybrid course consists of 40-hours of pre-course online learning and 40-hours or five in-person practical days at SOLO or one of its Affiliates.\nThe course was developed in response to the events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to see a need in the field for students to continue to learn about and gain skills in wilderness medicine and medicine in general. \nIn order to practice what we teach by utilizing appropriate body substance isolation/personal protective equipment (BSI/PPE)\, the intention of the online part of the course is for students to obtain a majority of the didactic information through a self-paced program while safely distancing from peers and instructors. \nPart two is a five-day\, in-person\, practical-focused component of the course. If students are able to appropriately demonstrate skills learned during those five days and complete any associated assessments\, they will earn their Wilderness First Responder certification at that point in time. \nIS THERE A BOOK FOR THIS COURSE\, YES! Press the Buy on Amazon  \n(press the button twice to go to Amazon) \n \nWHO IS THE WFR COURSE FOR? \nThe WFR is the perfect course for the outdoor enthusiast or trip leader who wants to advance their level of training beyond the WFA basic level of first aid training. \nWHAT IS TAUGHT? \nThe Hybrid WFR is 80 hours long (40 hours online and 40 hours in person). It focuses on the skills of Response – Patient Assessment\, and Critical Care; Trauma – Soft Tissue Injuries\, Musculoskeletal Injuries\, and Spinal Cord Injuries; the Environmental Emergencies\, and Medical Emergencies\, including changes in the level of consciousness\, chest pain\, shortness of breath\, and abdominal pain. \nWHERE AND WHEN IS IT HELD? \nThe WFR online course is available at any time. \nThe 5-day practical portion of the Hybrid WFR is held at Camp Eagle 6424 Hackberry Rd.\nRocksprings\, TX 78880\, \nHOW MUCH DOES IT COST? \nThe online portion cost is $400 per person. \nThe Link to the SOLO course page    https://www.soloschools.com/training-information/ \nON THE COURSE PAGE LOOK FOR         HYBRID WILDERNESS FIRST RESPONDER (WFR) \nThe 5-day practical course is $500\,  YOU WILL PAY ONLINE AT AUSTIN ASCENTS    www.austinascents.com \nLook for the WFR Hybrid \nWHAT ABOUT ROOM AND BOARD? \nRoom and board can be arranged through camp eagle. They have a number of options. Here is the link WFR FALL 2021 \nIf the system asks for an Event code it is WFR FALL 2021. \nIS THERE AN EXAM? \nYes\, there are several assessments included in the online learning. There is also a summative assessment that students must complete once they have finished all the online modules. An ongoing evaluation of practical skills will be conducted during the practical day. \nDO I GET CERTIFIED? \nYes. Your SOLO WFR certification is good for three years.
