Wilderness First Responder Course

Davis, CA – November 10-12 – Project Recover had fourteen BentProp team members take the 3 day Wilderness Medical Associates OEM (offshore emergency medicine) Wilderness First Responder Course, with Jeff Isaac, concentrating on remote location medical emergencies.

As team missions expand and reach farther away from shore and civilization, members agree education on basic remote medicine techniques is a necessity. Jeff’s common sense logical approach to medicine and survival made the course super fun and retainable.

We were lucky. Jeff co-authored the course book Wilderness and Rescue Medicine (6th edition) and was gracious enough to make the Wilderness First Responder Course happen. A mountain and boating adventurer, and physician’s assistant (PA).  Jeff’s knowledge is first-hand experience.

Team exercises like this help keep everyone in tune to the growing global environment we travel through. Another way BentProp team members are committed to the mission and themselves.

Thank you for reading and your support,
The Team
