We have adapted this course for a virtual format! It focuses on the critical initial steps and decision-making processes needed during the early stages of a search and rescue (SAR) operation, whether in urban or wilderness settings. The course equips participants with the skills to effectively manage SAR incidents from the onset until more specialized help arrives or the operation moves into additional operational periods. Key teachings include how to utilize and prepare maps, work with any available resources, employ the Lost Person Behavior teaching and statistics for strategic planning, establish containment, and efficiently prioritize and request appropriate resources with the goal of preventing the situation from escalating.

This course will include assignments that must be completed between sessions. These assignments are designed to reinforce the course content and to allow the participants to apply knowledge to simulated scenarios. The assignments will be completed utilizing google classroom.

Austere Medicine Adventure: A Himalayan Experience

The Austere Medicine Adventure: A Himalayan Experience, hosted by Sergeant Rescue Training & Consulting, LLC from March 2–9 2026, is an immersive expedition combining high-altitude trekking in Nepal’s Khumbu region with hands-on wilderness and expeditionary medicine instruction.

Participants will begin in Kathmandu for a meet-and-greet and session at the Himalayan Rescue Association, then fly into Lukla and embark on rugged trails, suspension-bridge crossings, and steep climbs toward iconic vistas including Mount Everest.

Along the trek, attendees engage in rigorous training: wilderness life-support for medical professionals (WLS:MP). They’ll learn and apply skills in austere care, expedition medical kit composition, altitude illness management, telemedicine in remote settings, and mountain rescue logistics. The trail unfolds over eight days: trekking to Monjo, then through Namche Bazaar and Khumjung for intensive scenario-based training, then descending via Phakding back to Lukla before returning to Kathmandu.

Physically demanding, this expedition requires excellent fitness, adaptability to basic lodging (tea-houses) and variable mountain conditions, but no prior mountaineering experience. The cost of $2,800 (plus optional CME/FAWM credit for $250) includes airport transfers, Kathmandu lodging (2 nights), round-trip Kathmandu–Lukla flight, eight days of guiding, three meals a day during trekking, trekking permit, porters, and certification through the WFR.

In short, this adventure offers the unique fusion of trekking one of the world’s most remote and spectacular mountain regions while developing advanced wilderness medicine competencies, making it a standout experience for medical and rescue professionals seeking to test their skills at altitude and in austere environments.
