[Philmont]: First Aid requirements

Does anyone know exactly what the requirements are for leaders (and/or
youth) having first aid certification for a Philmont trek. (2003 trek)

What certifications are accepted. We are sending a Podiatrist. Will the
that qualify for certification? Will I need to call Philmont to verify
that or will we need to send her to first aid training just to cover ourselves?

We will be starting to look at all of the certifications that adults need
and schedule whatever classes are needed this fall. There are no Red Cross
Wilderness First Aid classes offered in our area. (At least our local
chapter does not know of any in northern Indiana.)
