Towards the end of your training, we run a full heli-evacuation scenario on the mountain at the resort. You’ll respond to a simulated casualty incident on the hill, assess the patient, stabilise them, and coordinate a helicopter evacuation to get them off the mountain. The whole scenario is built around that high-pressure situation, and it brings together everything you’ve learned: your first aid, your communication, your decision making, your ability to stay calm when a helicopter is coming in overhead. It’s the closest thing to the real deal without someone actually being hurt, and most of our clients say it’s the highlight of the entire programme. It’s also the moment where you realise just how much you’ve actually absorbed in eight weeks.
