About This Module
This module provides students with examples of hands-on training in administering aid to a drowning victim, bleeding control, spinal injury extrication, joint immobilization, and more. We focus on the most common injuries and trauma scenarios seen in surf lineups.
*This module will have a special follow-up live virtual Q&A “Pau Hana Session” presented by Kona Brewing Co., where students who purchase the entire course or this individual module can directly interact with the module instructors, ask questions, and talk story.
The First Aid and Medical Interventions Module is 1 of 8 Modules offered by BWRAG as part of the Surf Responder Online Course.
