There is an outfit in Conway, NH called SOLO Wilderness Emergency Medicine that offers courses. I'm sure a search will get you the information.

EMS Week for us is a fun/exhausting time. We do presentations in our local elementary school at every grade level. For the younger kids, we introduce them to some of our equipment. For the older kids we try to cover a safety-related topic (bicycle, roller blade, skate board safety, or water safety). Everyone then gets a tour of the ambulance. After one of these presentations, we responded to a MVA and the 7 year old in the back seat was calming her mother down by explaining to her all the steps for spinal immobilization. 'Gotta recruit that kid! We also have an Blood Drive and Open House during the week. Anyone else have some cool ideas?
