For our June training, Deb Ajango of Safety Ed came down to Kodiak to offer her excellent Wilderness First Aid (WFA) refresher class to KISAR members. We always love when Deb works with us. She has an incredible breadth and depth of knowledge and experience in wilderness medicine, and her delivery is always engaging and informative. She spent time going over human physiology and the major biological systems in the body, then spoke about the most common ways these systems can become injured in wilderness settings. Finally, she ran 3-member teams (2 rescuers, 1 patient) through a variety of medical scenarios using the SOAP notes Philip developed for KISAR, resulting in a patient exam, assessment, monitoring, treatment plan, and evacuation tier.
