What happens in a medical emergency?

Sunshine and I are Wilderness First Aid and CPR certified. We will have a first aid kit on us at all times and one in the room where we will be staying.

Our first priority is to identify serious medical situations that require immediate evacuation and to take appropriate steps to stabilize our guests until help arrives. 

We are able to provide support in remote areas where access to professional medical care is delayed, by providing basic life-saving interventions and stabilizing a patient until further assistance arrives.

We can provide basic first aid procedures like wound care, CPR, managing bleeding, treating for shock, and addressing common injuries like sprains and strains in remote settings.

In all situations, we call first-responders immediately and then care for our guests until help arrives.
