Wilderness First Aid/Risk Management Protocols for Independent School

When: June 21-24, 2010

Where: The Hotchkiss School, Lakeville, CT (http://www.hotchkiss.org)

Facilitator: Bill Frederick of Wilderness Medical Associates and the
School for Field Studies.
http://www.fieldstudies.org/pages/1653_bill_frederick_safety_director.cfm

What: 4 day course that not only includes the Wilderness First Aid
curriculum, but also has sections on institutional risk assessment,
and emergency response and ?communication plans. Designed for program
leaders as well as school administrators.

Testimonial: Mike Hanewald of Lawrenceville wrote: "I attended a
session led by Bill at a college level conference and also have seen
him at NOLS risk ?management conferences. The strength of his ?
presentation, from my perspective, is the training and reality of ?the
situation from the home office in response to an emergency ?abroad.
Currently I think most of us focus on the people in the ?field and how
prepared they are, and less on how to handle at home.?"

Cost: $550 a person, which includes all meals and certifications.
Lodging is available in the Hotchkiss dormitories for $60 a night -
see the registration form for more information about area hotels.
