Delaware Valley Ski Patrol

OEC Information

The NSP (National Ski Patrol) is the primary provider of medical educational programs for the patrollers who care for the snowsports public. OEC (Outdoor Emergency Care) technicians are trained to provide emergency care for environmental illnesses and injuries, spinal injuries, and ski/snowboard and other outdoor injuries. All individuals completing this course are given a 3-year certification that notes course completion of all knowledge and skill objectives. Management personnel at nearly all mountain and nordic resorts in the United States recognize the value of this OEC education program and use the completion of the course as a prerequisite for becoming a patroller.
