If anyone is interested putting together a basic first aid and CPR class? It takes about 4 hours to be certified.. I am a true believer of knowing such basic medical techniques . would anyone be interested ?

i have been certified before, but i think i will need a re certification.
Everyone who gets outdoors and wheels needs some basic First Aid knowledge as well as a decent First Aid kit. I would highly recommend people take this. It could save someone's life....and may save yours...
I am interested. I agree this is important for everyone to have some working knowledge.
I'm interested.

I am interested as well, have a lots of ares by me we could do this at too.
Really nice to see the interest!
I'm interested. I started college with EMT training. Fun stuff, just not fond of wiping old butts for a living.
Depending on how the new job pans out, I'd like to help/refresh in this area.
Interested as well.
Interested here too. I carry a FA kit in my rig but would like to know how to effectively use it too.
Interested...
Interested....& Certifiable no doubt, just not in FA & CPR. Took a class years ago & would be nice to get a follow up.
Wow, lots of good interest.
I'm constantly getting new and current first aid/CPR certifications. If I can help in any way I'm happy to.
I'm coming in late to this thread and admit I haven't read it all but think that we could incorporate a field first-aid with a run like Pete did with the recovery run.
I suggested that early on as this is best done for this particular sport in a more 'real world' scenario than in a classroom type environment. The same things can still be taught and in a more fun and scenic setting, but the benefits are more than that. Setting up a real world incident where someone has legs caught under a tire, like when working on a rig and the jack fails or shifts, tagged by a broken winch line, losing a finger or hand, broken bones caused by any one of a number of things, or any one of a number of other common 4x4 related injuries, are best done in the field with real rigs and real people.
Improvisation is also best done in the field, ideally with a less than adequate first aid kit and having to utilize what is "on hand" to save a life, splint or otherwise immobilize a limb, head, neck, or spine injury, stop a sucking chest wound, patch a bullet wound, etc., etc., etc.
agreed, out in the field is a much better "classroom".
Interested.
Ijust got my re-certification through the fire dept. It is a great thing to know for any outdoor activity.
