Melody is a great instructor — I recently took her first aid class and she keeps it interesting despite there being a lot of content. The practice scenarios were really helpful — and fun too! I highly recommend Melody’s courses.

I participated in Melody’s Wilderness and Remote First Aid class — a great experience. I learned a huge amount of very useful information that will help me as a Sierra Club outlings leader, and in my own backcountry trips. Melody and her associate instructors are brilliant at conveying a huge amount of information in a short time, and the team exercises they provide give a chance to put theory to practice.
I highly recommend this course to anyone who want to develop skills and confidence in first aid.

Excellent first aid training with wilderness focus. Guests trainers including RN’s, Physical Therapists, and others provide in depth information on treading wilderness/​delayed care injuries. Melody and her guest trainers actively participate in wilderness activities and share their experience handling injuries in wilderness/​delayed care environments. Taught to Red Cross Standards this course goes well above the basic requirements and gives real world examples and scenarios. The courses are engaging and provide much more training that standard first aid course.

Recently I graduated from the Wilderness Beginning Course in North County. I was seeking for additional wilderness knowledge in the area of «anything can go wrong in the backcountry» and being more prepared. Since I will continue to be hiking, I search and found First Aid Gone Wild taught by Melody Eues/Firstaidgonewild.com. This course is based on American Red Cross standards but taught by a Registered nurse/​avid hiker. We had lecture and hands on activities with live calibrated backcountry scenarios’ for our final. I highly recommend this class for people that enjoy the out doors. Additionally you never know when something may happen in every day life and would be grateful to have had this medical knowledge and training.

Melody’s Wilderness First Aid Class is very comprehensive and challenging. I have taken several First Aid classes over the years, but this one really made me think. The scenarios were realistic and gave us a chance to practice what we were learning. Although much of First Aid is very similar, discussing the additional challenges of being out in the backcountry made it very relevant to what we might have to do. I would recommend this class to anyone who loves to spend time in the wilderness. Melody and her helpers are very knowledgeable, and you will be in very competent hands.

Melody offers a great first aid class with First Aid Gone Wild. You will learn everything from how to make various slings and splints to how to tell if someone is having heat exhaustion. The scenarios that you will go through during class are very informative and prepare you for what you might encounter out in the wilderness. I’d recommend this class 1000 times over.
