The Wilderness Advanced First Aid (WAFA) course is designed for those who lead, supervise, or make medical decisions in remote environments where evacuation is delayed and resources are limited.
This 5-day, 45-contact-hour intensive program follows WMTC international standards and bridges the gap between basic wilderness first aid and professional responder-level training.
WAFA is where first aid becomes field medicine.
Wilderness incidents rarely follow clean protocols
Patients deteriorate over time, not minutes
Leaders must make medical, logistical, and ethical decisions
This course trains you to:
Think beyond immediate treatment
Manage patients over hours to days
Decide when to evacuate, delay, or improvise
This is the level where responsibility becomes real.
Conduct advanced patient assessment and monitoring
Manage trauma, bleeding, fractures, and wound care in the field
Treat medical and environmental emergencies
Provide care during prolonged evacuation timelines
Make risk-based evacuation decisions
Lead medical response within a team structure
Training emphasizes clinical reasoning, leadership, and adaptability, not checklists.
Outdoor guides and expedition leaders
Instructors, educators, and camp directors
Search and support personnel in remote operations
Individuals preparing for Wilderness First Responder (WFR) training
