Rescue and Emergency Care Re-validation
The course aims to update your first aid skills and acquaint you with any new developments in the REC scheme.
Rescue 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.
This course is delivered on behalf of Mountaintrails by Niamh Gaffney; Wilderness EMT (WEMSI EMT) PHECC EMT (pre-hospital emergency care council of Ireland) FIRST AID RESPONDER AND CARDIAC RESPONDER INSTRUCTOR
Niamh also has extensive experience in the outdoors as an accomplished climber, mountain biker and hill runner.
