 Steve Donelan Summary For
twenty-four years, I have been teaching
wilderness and
pre-hospital emergency care courses and training instructors. I
developed and
direct a national Wilderness Emergency Care program for the American
Safety
& Health Institute (www.ashinstitute.org), which publishes my
textbook, Wilderness Emergency Care, and WEC
Instructor
Guide. This program supports a family of courses from basic to
professional
level. I teach for many organizations,
including the National Ski Patrol, the San Francisco Paramedic
Association, adult
schools, Scout Councils, and Sierra Club Chapters. I have published
many
articles on emergency care and how to teach it in national journals,
including Wilderness & Environmental Medicine,
Journal of Emergency Medical Services (JEMS), Rescue,
Ski Patrol Magazine, On Scene: The Journal of Outdoor Emergency
Care, Sierra, and Training Links
(instructor magazine of the American Safety & Health Institute). Credentials
