Has anyone ever done one of these?
It's a literal grift so hillbillies can charge you exorbitant fees when you pussy out. And it's like medical debt, it can't be actually legally extruded from you but since it looks legit it's as good as real money to hillbilly governments.
>>2810074Yes. And wilderness emt.
>>2810076It's five days...
>>2810090You're such a tourist you can't even comprehend what I'm saying.
>>2810093Your reply unironically makes me feel embarrassed for you and I don't like that.
So did you have an actual question OP or did you really just want to know if anyone had taken that course at all, and that's it?
>>2810074I did it because the USFS gives a small pay bump for anyone in a wildland fire position that brings medical credentials along with them. Course sucked, not worth the money.
>>2810076Going to a WFR course is too scawwy for /out/
>>2810773>you all are just too afraid to eat actual excrement like me!
>>2810776don't even respond to the obvious trolls bro. Let me explain it real simple. These courses only exist so "first responders" can take absolute idiot tier knowledge dumps to force you to pay them for their knowledge when they come rescue you because you tried to climb a mountain in flip flops.
>>2810773Put the whole board on clutch
>>2810784This course is $200... is that expensive to you?
>>2812043I truly hope your retarded ass has to get rescued from your stupidity and then you wonder why all 8 guys that came to rescue you charged you 200 dollars an hour. Here's a hint because you are retarded. These classes.
>>2810074>>2810074I am a Paramedic, and have my WP-C. Never took a WFR but helped teach some. "WFR" in many states doesn't give you any scope of practice.Most states do not have a "Wilderness EMT" either. In Kentucky, we have a unique scope, mostly relegated to Paramedics. It is decent curriculum (Depending on who it is through) and can serve certain groups, companies, agencies, etc My .02c is take this if it's either free, or somesort of job requirement. Or if you just simply have an interest in the topic. If you're a lay peerson, just read some WP_C prep material and you'll be fine. If you're establishing curriculum for a SAR team or local EMS / FD then it might be good to pull some info from this course.
