The Imam Abdulaziz bin Mohammed Royal Reserve Development Authority and the Saudi Climbing and Hiking Federation recently completed a wilderness life support training course at King Khalid Royal Reserve. Over 20 participants learned essential skills for providing immediate medical care in remote and challenging environments.
The course covered a range of critical skills, including injury assessment, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), wound treatment, and first aid for common outdoor emergencies like suffocation, burns, fractures, heat stress, and sunstroke.
Participants gained hands-on experience through field exercises and simulations designed to replicate real-life scenarios. They also received instruction on using basic medical equipment in natural settings, empowering them to respond effectively in challenging situations.
