First is a requirement for the mountain training awards and schemes.
All awards now require a current and relevant 16-hour first aid course at the time of assessment, with the exception of the climbing wall instructor & climbing wall development instructor, where an 8-hour course will meet requirements. The course should be at least 16 hours long, be face to face not online, include an element of assessment, and cover remote care. If you are unsure if your course meets these requirements, please contact the training officer for confirmation. Here are links to websites where first aid courses can be sourced.

First aid and medication
Personal medications that don't need refrigeration auto-injector of epinephrine, if prescribed by your doctor pain relievers, such as acetaminophen (tylenol, others), ibuprofen (advil, motrin ib, others) consider keeping aspirin in your first-aid kit, as well. Aspirin may be life-saving in an adult with chest pain. If you or someone else has new or unexplained chest pain or may be having a heart attack, call for emergency medical help immediately. Then chew a regular-strength aspirin. However, don't take aspirin if you are allergic to aspirin, have bleeding problems or take another blood-thinning medication, or if your doctor previously told you not to do so.
