They require at least one advisor (maybe it can be any crew member -
i.e. a youth?) be first aid certified, and at least one be CPR
certified. They'd prefer two of each. Red Cross and Medic First Aid,
among others, were satisfactory certifications. Here in
Massachusetts, RN's needed to get recertified every two years
profesionally, and that process makes them first aid certified. A
similar recertification may cover the podiatrist.
The certification that caught us unaware was that all adults, not just
the one advisor, needed Youth Protection training.
