Essentially to push the level that Hoopoe guides currently have and to take them a step above what is currently offered on the mountain and to cover more wilderness scenarios. Certain circumstances require specialist skills and specialist training - and so what was the syllabus? Course content 1. Senior first aid - refresher course + assessment CPR - EAR - BLEEDING + WOUND MANAGEMENT - DRABC 2.Advanced First Aid (remote environment) Stethoscope use Sphygmomanometer and BP assessment Airway management Medical notes Patient Assessment (primary and) secondary survey Intra venous cannulation Intra muscular injection Wound closure Attendees 4 Hoopoe wilderness guides were selected to attend the course based on exam results in the previous November training course and trip feedback from clients.
