Event Details

David Stepner and a group of South Bay patrollers will guide an OEC class (#16813) in Palo Alto CA from Aug 22 to Nov 14, 2009.The location has not been finally decided, but it will be in the mid-Peninsula area.

Outdoor Emergency Care® is the National Ski Patrol’s award-winning training program for patrollers and others in the recreation community who deal with emergency situations. This nationally recognized program is designed to help you manage the toughest emergencies, in all seasons. Developed in the late 1980s for the 26,000 members of the National Ski Patrol, Outdoor Emergency Care is a training program that is tailored to the nonurban rescuer. Today, OEC is considered the standard of training for emergency care in the outdoor environment and is recognized by resorts and recreational facilities in all 50 states.

Our course is designed to serve ski patrols in the Lake Tahoe/Truckee area. Our patrollers work within an hour of definitive care by ground transport and are serviced by helicopter transport for patients with urgent problems. Most high backcountry sites in the Basin have cell coverage and helicopter transport as well. We do not spend class time on any issues which are not important in this winter environment. Candidates expecting to work at remote ski areas or in a summer environment must put extra effort into the relevant textbook and workbook information.

The class will meet on Tuesday and Thursday evenings (7-10pm) and on three Saturdays (8am-4pm.). Please refer to the website http://www.oectools.org/PaloAlto for details.

Please do not register until you are committed to attend the Palo Alto class.  Do not register for this course expecting to transfer your payment to another course. Please consider carefully before you register. Refunds are possible only if another student takes the position you registered for.
