Wilderness First Aid (ECSI) - March 2026
2026-03-07 | Camp ToPeNeBee, 0377 N. Holmesville Road, Michigan City, IN, 46360, United States
LaSalle Council Scouting America
Wilderness First Aid Training 2026
What is wilderness first aid?
Wilderness first aid, or “WFA”, is a generic term that commonly refers to any training course that focuses on prevention, assessment, and treatment for an ill or injured person in a remote environment where definitive care by a physician and/or rapid transport is not readily available. This is defined as being an hour or more away from advanced care. WFA courses are intended for anyone planning a remote high adventure, from lay responders to medical professionals.
Who needs WFA?
Youth (14 years old and up) and adult Scout leaders are encouraged to take a 16-hour WFA course based on the specific curriculum developed by Scouting America, which includes a management dimension that most course fail to address. Participants will likely find it the most valuable program they’ll ever take.
All four of Scouting America high-adventure bases (HAB) require at least one person per trek (two per trek at Philmont Scout Ranch) to be current in WFA through one of Scouting America approved providers. Of course, having more participants trained in WFA skills is highly recommended for any high adventure or backcountry experience.
Scouting America has identified the following providers as meeting Scouting America’s requirements
for WFA training:

American Red Cross (ARC)

16 hour in person training

Emergency Care & Safety Institute (ECSI)

16 hour blended learning

8 hour self-paced online training

Any conscientious Adult Leader who is familiar with basic swimming strokes and who understands and abides by the Safe Swim Defense guidelines can administer a swim test for rank advancement or Unit Level activities.
However, Leaders and Campers who plan to participate in any aquatic activity during residential summer camp should have the swim-test administered by an Adult Leader who has taken additional skils training.
When swim tests are conducted away from camp, the Camp Aquatics Director retains the right to review or retest any or all participants to ensure that standards have been maintained.
