Rescue Diver Course

So you’ve learned how to dive, about different types of diving activities and gained some experience – now it’s time to focus on other divers and at the same time give yourself a great confidence boost. The Rescue course teaches you how to be the kind of buddy that we all want to have. Rescue Diver training will prepare you to prevent problems and, if necessary, manage dive emergencies. Although this course is serious, it is also extremely enjoyable and quite tiring!

The course covers:

Self-rescue and diver stress

Dive first aid

Emergency management and equipment considerations

Review of course and exam

Swimming and non-swimming assists

Panicked diver response

Underwater problems

Missing diver procedures

Surfacing the unconscious diver

Inwater artificial respiration

Egress (exits)

First aid procedures for pressure related accidents
 

Dive accident scenarios

Course pre-requisites are PADI Advanced Open Water or equivalent and 20 logged dives. A certification requirement is that the student has a recent (valid) first aid qualification such as the PADI EFR certification.

Included in our course price of £325 including your manual and certification. Note that equipment hire is available at our student training rate of £20 per day.

Your rescue course is scheduled with 2 pool sessions and 2 open water sessions, this may change slightly depending on numbers
