rescue diver course

Challenging and rewarding best describes the PADI Rescue Diver course. This course will expand your knowledge and experience level.

Rescue Divers learn to look beyond themselves and consider the safety and well being of other divers.

Although this course is challenging, it is a rewarding way to build your confidence.

Rescue Diver training will prepare you to prevent problems and, if necessary, manage dive emergencies.

Many divers say this is the best course they’ve ever taken.

 

 You'll cover:

• Self-rescue and diver stress

• Emergency management and equipment

• Panicked diver response

• In-water rescue breathing protocols

• Egress (exits)

• Dive accident scenarios

 

Rescue Course Description:

3 days total

1 day pool and theory

2 days boat/shore

 

Your first day will consist of pool and class work, equipping you with basic skills such as assisting a panicking diver, surfacing an unconscious diver, and out of air drills. In the classroom you will learn how to quickly identify stress in divers and how to minimise the risks associated with differing diving conditions.

The second and third days are spent on the boat simulating emergencies, conducting searches, and learning how best to manage the human resources available, as well as learning how to administer oxygen, and in-water artificial ventilation techniques. Be prepared for unexpected rescue scenarios!
