First aid and CPR required for high adventure bases

Each unit attending Philmont Scout Ranch must have a least one person certified in both:

  1. American Red Cross Wilderness First Aid or the equivalent
  2. CPR from the American Heart Association, the American Red Cross, or the equivalent.

Northern Tier and Sea Base require Basic First Aid and CPR.

If your unit is attending a BSA High Adventure Base this season, you should already have completed or currently be registered for one of the area training courses.
 
The Wilderness First Aid course is offered by the Red Cross (current schedule).
 
The Wilderness First Aid Course is also being offered via the Lone Star District.

The Red Cross regularly offers CPR classes (more info).

The Wilderness First Aid and CPR courses are separate certifications and require separate classes.
