Most people don't know...

Most people don't know how to relieve choking, control a major bleed, or use critical life-saving tools such as an Epipen, AED, or Tourniquet. And so, they limit their experiences, travel, and adventure or worse yet, when they encounter emergencies they feel frozen and unprepared. 


Your mission should you choose to accept it is to engage for just 10-15 minutes/day for 21 days to learn these and many other life-saving skills. Our signature system of self-directed videos, quizzes, and actions along with a live online Skills Lab is the most convenient and effective way to learn these skills. 


In 21 days you will have the skills to prevent emergencies, and effectively respond to those that can not be prevented. Imagine setting off on adventures feeling relaxed, self-reliant, and ready for anything!

Hands Down

by Sabrina

“This is hands down the highest quality CPR course I have taken. The format is convenient and effective. Nicole's delivery is excellent. She is enthusiastic, professional and responsive. She went the extra mile to accommodate our needs. And I didn't expect it to be so much fun! I highly recommend this course!”

Absolutely the BEST

“Absolutely the BEST CPR course I've ever taken! After 25+ years of being CPR certified, the renewal courses have become pretty boring and ho-hum. Not this renewal course - it was engaging, informative and empowering. I feel more prepared for an emergency than I ever have before. Thank you so much!”

You should be...

"You [Nicole] should be the only person allowed to teach this course"

Perfect Fit

"As a nature-based occupational therapist, I found the Wild Med CPR and First Aid course to be a perfect fit for my work. The course was comprehensive yet delivered efficiently. I was able to process through the easy-to access modules at a pace and schedule convenient to me but I also had supportive interactions with the instructor during the live skills sessions. The scenarios were relevant to my work and the instructor was very relatable. I highly recommend this course to both professionals and parents that take their kids outdoors in all environments."

Phenomenal

"I have taken 1st Aid and CPR courses with Nicole in person and online. Both are phenomenal. She is an excellent teacher, and has created an extremely well-organized, informative, and memorable course. I feel prepared!"

Wouldn't be without...

by Hanna

"I received the first aid kit as a gift and was floored by how thoughtfully put together and complete it is! I'll never need anything else to go for a hike, the beach, or just an outing. Before I hodge podged many different kits together but now I have one that has items I hadn't even thought of but now wouldn't be without and in a handy carry case to boot!! Easily one of the most useful, most appreciated gifts I've ever received! Think I'll start giving them as gifts☺️"
