The PADI Rescue
Course widens your focus to include other divers' safety.
What will I learn?
You will learn to help
prevent and if needed, manage dive emergencies both minor and
major with a variety of procedures. The Rescue Course will
refine your skill and confidence as a diver.
Most certified PADI Rescue Divers reflect on their rescue training as one of
the most challenging and rewarding courses they have
undertaken. Although it is a serious subject, the training is
fun! Subjects covered include self rescue, diver stress,
diving first aid, emergency management, equipment problems and
rescue and assistance processes for both conscious and
unconscious victims, both underwater and on the surface.
Rescue Diver Training
expands your diving knowledge, improves your diving skills and
teaches you to be a more aware and responsible diver. More
importantly, rescue training can help you to save lives and
increases diver safety by preparing you to respond to and
handle diving emergencies. It is the first point in your
diver training when your instructor will start to focus your
attention on how to assist others. This certification is also
an important pre-requisite for the
Divemaster
rating.
