Purchase a good Wilderness First Aid Book and read it.
Most First Aid courses today teach you to do very little except dial 911.
If you are concerned about when there is no hospital available you probably need to do independent study to get it.
The book will remain with you for quick consultation.
Suggested $22 book: Link
If you want to really learn it then read it and then teach it to someone else. You will quickly learn what must be already in your head and what can be read later.
Then if you want take a regular First Aid course.
Consider having the reader in the family read it and teach the others.
Best of luck to you.
