Remote Emergency Care Re-validation
The course aims to update your first aid skills and acquaint you with any new developments in the REC scheme.
Remote Emergency Care level 3 has an internationally recognised curriculum. The course fulfils the requirements of all major sporting governing bodies including Mountaineering Ireland and Canoe Ireland. It is run by outdoor medical experts with experience in both the medical field and in outdoor pursuits.
To ensure all participants get the appropriate individual attention from the trainer we restrict numbers to a maximum of 10 persons. We also believe in delivering a portion of the course outdoors to make the scenarios as realistic as possible.
(Note: This is now offered to individuals as a bolt-on to day two of our REC 3 courses. Please contact us for dates & details: info@mountaintrails.ie )
You will need an in-date REC 3 cert to be able to complete this course.
The minimum age to attend this course is now 18 years.
The course is delivered on behalf on Mountaintrails by Paul Nolan.
