The WHFR also includes a 40-hour WFA certification card through the Emergency Care and Safety Institute (ECSI), CPR certification, and a Wilderness First Responder certification through The Human Path.

This is the merging of the worlds of remote or post-disaster medicine (“ditch medicine”) with the world of herbalism and includes most of the herbal information and all (plus some) of the hands-on experience of the Herbal Medic Basic course. PLUS, this course includes all of the wilderness first responder curriculum that allows the student to be a competent first aid provider right from the get-go in the case of illness, injury or even chronic health issue.

FULL COURSE DESCRIPTION IS BELOW.

This course is geared toward a number of different types of students:
• The outdoor enthusiast, camp counselor, outdoor recreational employee who wants in-depth training on injury and illness management in the field.

• The camper, hiker or rock-climber who wants more much more intensive learning, geared toward outdoor environments, than a standard first aid course.

• The prepper (disaster preparedness) who wants to be self-sufficient medically and not even necessarily reliant on orthodox pharmaceuticals.

• The herbalist who wants higher intensity training across the board from wilderness first aid to herbal medicine in a remote environment.

• The emergency medicine professional who wants to expand his/her horizons into indefinite medical care that includes botanical medicines (field herbalism).[/fusion_text][fusion_separator s2id_autogen20=”” s2id_autogen20_search=”” style_type=”none” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” sep_color=”” top_margin=”10″ bottom_margin=”10″ border_size=”” icon=”” icon_size=”” icon_circle=”” icon_circle_color=”” width=”” alignment=”center” /][fusion_button link=”https://herbalmedics.academy/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/2019-2020-WHFR-Syllabus.pdf” text_transform=”” title=”” target=”_self” link_attributes=”” alignment=”” modal=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” s2id_autogen20=”” s2id_autogen20_search=”” color=”default” button_gradient_top_color=”” button_gradient_bottom_color=”” button_gradient_top_color_hover=”” button_gradient_bottom_color_hover=”” accent_color=”” accent_hover_color=”” type=”” bevel_color=”” border_width=”” border_radius=”” border_color=”” border_hover_color=”” size=”xlarge” stretch=”yes” icon=”” icon_position=”left” icon_divider=”no” s2id_autogen21=”” s2id_autogen21_search=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ s2id_autogen22=”” s2id_autogen22_search=”” animation_offset=””]CLICK HERE TO VIEW FULL COURSE SYLLABUS[/fusion_button][fusion_separator s2id_autogen21=”” s2id_autogen21_search=”” style_type=”none” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” sep_color=”” top_margin=”10″ bottom_margin=”10″ border_size=”” icon=”” icon_size=”” icon_circle=”” icon_circle_color=”” width=”” alignment=”center” /][fusion_text columns=”” column_min_width=”” column_spacing=”” s2id_autogen29=”” s2id_autogen29_search=”” rule_style=”default” rule_size=”” rule_color=”” hide_on_mobile=”small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility” class=”” id=”” s2id_autogen30=”” s2id_autogen30_search=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”left” animation_speed=”0.3″ s2id_autogen31=”” s2id_autogen31_search=”” animation_offset=””]The full course includes all of the following skills:
