Wildernes First Aid Course


  • UAE Trekkers Dubai Dubai United Arab Emirates (map)

Everyone that hikes or spends any time at all outdoors here in UAE or anywhere should have this training, but they won’t. Which is why they depend on our guides to have it. These courses are very difficult to find because they are in very low demand. We have tailor designed the course along with the standardized objectives for our guides to get more hands-on practical training for the emergencies that we have the most frequently.

Training at Wander Retreat includes breakfast and lunch and refreshments all day for 3 days

3 days of Training Sessions in Showka at Wander Retreat: Saturday, Sunday and Saturday the 27th of September.

We will be holding the training sessions in Showka at Wander Retreat in order to be able to minimize the talk time and maximize the hands on training with direct access to the remote area that we visit the most.

We will expand on the standard training to include response time and practical hands on ways to evaluate, provide care for, and evacuate if necessary, people with common and less common injuries and ailments.
