All About It
- 10.0hrs
Are you someone who finds themself in the wild outdoors quite often?
Have you always thought to yourself, “Damn, it would be great if I had some kind of outdoor first-aid training” but then never found the right opportunity to pick up this skill?
The first hour following a mishap or injury, known as the ‘Golden Hour’, is crucial for determining the patient's outcome. In situations where getting the patient to definitive medical care takes longer than an hour, it's termed a wilderness scenario. This could occur even if you're near a hospital but unable to access medical aid due to factors like floods, strikes, riots, or processions.
Unlike traditional first aid programs designed for urban settings, the Emergency First Response (EFR) addresses the challenges specific to the rural context, where prompt responses and quick rescue services may be lacking. This course emphasizes experience, innovation, and a resolute spirit in providing effective first aid.

Vagabond started out as a project by four friends with a disdain for the ordinary. The idea was simple; take people out of their comfort zones. Not like Roadies, but just enough to bond them together through beautiful and authentic experiences. Happiness, as they say, is only real when shared. And share we did. The company was founded in 2014. As fresh Bachelor of Arts degree holders, companies were lining up to hire us fine gentlemen; we’re kidding. Fueled by entrepreneurial zeal, we started with small events in the city like heritage walks through Bombay’s old quarters. As musicians and travellers ourselves, we decided to marry these two loves of our lives. That is how the idea for the first Fields of Sound™ came about. Since then, it has only been onward and upwards for us. Since 2014, we’ve made friends like family through our journey. Our little ‘Vaga’-Fam. It’s safe to say, it’s been quite an adventure. One we would like you to join :)
