Wilderness medicine classes are widely available to archaeologists and field scientists, but because wilderness medicine is an unregulated field, knowing what the various courses and products mean can be difficult. Based on the education chapter in the recently published textbook Wilderness EMS, this article—written by same two authors as the book—explores a number of topics relevant for the field scientist, program director, or administrator seeking to obtain wilderness medicine training for archaeologists. The article first explores the history of wilderness medicine products and certificates available to interested parties. It then differentiates between the various products available today along with their benefits and limitations for the end user. Products and trainings described include certifications (including Wilderness First Aid [WFA], Wilderness Advanced First Aid [WAFA], Advanced Wilderness First Aid [AWFA], and Wilderness First Responder [WFR]), as well as single use or continuing education trainings (including Stop the Bleed, CPR, conference courses, and field schools). Particular attention is paid to the specific and actionable needs of a field scientist in remote areas.

荒野医学教育

考古学家和野外科学家可以广泛使用荒野医学课程，但由于荒野医学是一个不受监管的领域，因此很难了解各种课程和产品的含义。基于最近出版的教科书中的教育章节荒野EMS，这篇文章——由与本书相同的两位作者撰写——探讨了一些与现场科学家、项目主管或行政人员相关的主题，这些主题旨在为考古学家获得荒野医学培训。本文首先探讨了感兴趣的各方可获得的荒野医学产品和证书的历史。然后，它区分了当今可用的各种产品以及它们对最终用户的好处和限制。描述的产品和培训包括认证（包括 Wilderness First Aid [WFA]、Wilderness Advanced First Aid [WAFA]、Advanced Wilderness First Aid [AWFA] 和 Wilderness First Responder [WFR]），以及一次性或继续教育培训（包括停止流血、心肺复苏术、会议课程和野外学校）。
