Accidents happen. People get hurt, sick, or lost. The temperature drops, the wind picks up, and it starts to rain. Would you know what to do? Many backcountry emergencies are preventable, and even when bad things happen, you can make the difference between a bad outcome and a good one - and maybe even save a life.


 

Who is Wilderness First Aid (WFA) for?

WFA is the perfect course for the outdoor enthusiast and is required for outings leaders by organizations such as the Sierra Club and Scouts. No prior first aid experience is required. Our WFA class meets or exceeds the guidelines of the Sierra Club, BSA, ACA and many other outdoor organizations. 

What is taught?

WFA is a two day course that teaches you to avoid, prevent or cope with emergencies in the wilderness. You’ll learn about environmental and biological hazards, medical problems, and injuries. And you will practice many first aid techniques as well as patient assessment, then put all your skills together in role-playing scenarios. 

Where and when is it held?

Our WFA course is held at the Sports Basement Presidio (610 Old Mason St. San Francisco, CA) or at the Sports Basement Berkeley (2727 Milvia St. Berkeley). Please select your location during signup and note that the start time differs by store.

Is there an exam?

No prerequisites and no written exam. We evaluate your skills throughout the course. To be certified, you must:
 Attend and participate in the entire class.
 Demonstrate the skills during class practice sessions.

Do I get certified?

Yes. You will receive NASAR WFA certification which is valid for two years.

Who does the certification come from?

The National Association for Search and Rescue, (NASAR) is dedicated to advancing professional, literary, and scientific knowledge in fields related to search and rescue. NASAR is comprised of thousands of professionals interested in all aspects of search and rescue - the humanitarian cause of saving lives - throughout the United States and around the world. The NASAR WFA certification is recognized throughout the United States and in several other countries.
 

Breakdown of Class Time

Classroom

We use vivid slides and interactive teaching methods to explain what can cause wilderness emergencies.

Practice

You’ll learn more bandaging and splinting techniques in 16 hours than we teach EMTs in 160 hours, because they have an ambulance full of equipment for a short ride to the hospital, whereas you’ll have what’s in your pack or can improvise before you evacuate the patient. You’ll also learn how to do a full patient assessment for serious injuries or medical problems.

Scenarios

You’ll do realistic, role-playing scenarios to put all your skills together, working solo and in teams. You’ll also learn and practice how to organize patient information and give an oral report to medical professionals.

Great set of sheets
Color: Blue Pinstripe, Size: Twin
These microfiber sheets are incredibly soft and comfortable, especially for the price. I purchased the blue and white set for my daughter’s bed, and she loves them. The colors are bright and exactly as pictured. They fit the mattress well, don’t slip off the corners, and wash up nicely without pilling or fading. The brushed microfiber feels cozy and lightweight, making them great for year-round use. Overall, a great value and I would definitely buy another set.

Bold Colors, Great Quality, and an Amazing Price - Perfect Everyday Sheets
Color: Black, Size: Full
The Amazon Basics lightweight bed sheets have been such a great buy for my boys’ bedrooms. They come in a wide variety of colors, which made it easy to match each room’s style — and the colors stay bold and vibrant even after multiple washes, which honestly surprised me. The quality is excellent for the price. The fabric stays soft, doesn’t pill, and holds up well to frequent washing (a must in kids’ rooms!). Each set includes a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillow shams, which makes the value even better — most sets at this price point don’t include that many pieces. Overall, these sheets are affordable, durable, colorful, and comfortable. I loved them enough to buy them in multiple colors, and they’ve held up beautifully. A fantastic budget-friendly choice for any household.

I really like these sheets. They are soft, lightweight, and fit my twin mattress perfectly. The lavender color looks beautiful in person and they feel comfortable to sleep on. After washing, they still looked nice and didn’t wrinkle much. Great quality for the price!

Bed Sheets
Color: Bright White Striped, Size: Queen
I’m really happy with these bed sheets. They feel soft and comfortable against the skin, and the crisp white color gives the bed a clean, fresh look. The fabric is lightweight but still feels durable and well made. They fit the mattress nicely and stay in place throughout the night. After washing, they came out looking great with no noticeable shrinking or loss of softness.
