Hey guys, So my WFR course is almost over and thus far I've learned a lot of new things about advanced first aid as well as new modifications on techniques I learned through OL. We've learned CPR for all sorts of scenarios, how to deal with spinal related injuries, how to move victims safely, how to record SOAP (patient analysis stuff) notes, and how to splint broken things. I really like the simulations where we get to play with fake blood because I get to demonstrate all the skills I learned through OL (tarp building and first aid) and I've always enjoyed pretending....
It's unfortunate that it has been raining ALL WEEK and when it isnt raining the black flies are out meddling, so it makes some of the outside scenarios kind of unbearable. besides from that, the food is awesome, the reading assignments aren't to demanding, and the people here are all really cool outdoor enthusiasts like me. Right now it's the weekend so were all just hanging out in the main building looking for the rain to clear to hike Mt Washington (They give us a lot of freedom here, a little taste of what college is going to be like)!.... We'll see how that goes...
I meant my wfr is almost HALF over
