Who provided the course, how many hours, was it good, how much itme on skills, how much on senerios, how much on CPR, how knowlegable were the instructors, how much classroom, how much bush? (and yes, I have done bad first aid courses)
thanks

: Last weekend, I got my wilderness first aid certification. Here in Canada, we
: can buy an epi-pen without a prescription and people trained in WFA can
: give the injections to others in wilderness settings only. (Actually, it's
: much cheaper to buy vials of epinephrine and give injections with standard
: syringes, so we learned to do that as well.) Our trainers warned us it
: could be illegal for us to adminster epinephrine to others in some
: American states.

: Does anyone know if Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts and NY state allow WFA
: folks to carry syringes and inject epinephrine?
