First Aid Merit Badge - On Demand 24/7

Start Anytime – Flexible, Counselor-Supported Merit Badge Learning

The EPIC Badges On-Demand Program empowers Scouts to begin and complete merit badges on their own schedule—without sacrificing the support of a certified counselor. With 24/7 access to engaging course materials, Scouts can learn at their own pace, revisit key concepts as needed, and receive live guidance to ensure they meet every badge requirement with confidence.

The First Aid Merit Badge equips Scouts with the knowledge and skills to respond confidently in emergencies, from minor cuts and scrapes to life-threatening situations. Scouts will learn the principles of immediate care, how to recognize “hurry cases,” and the importance of staying calm under pressure.

Through demonstrations, practice scenarios, and step-by-step instruction, they will master techniques such as bandaging, CPR, treating burns, and handling fractures. This badge emphasizes preparedness, quick thinking, and responsibility—qualities that allow Scouts to protect themselves and others in times of need, both in the outdoors and in everyday life.
