Rescue/Emergency Prepared Diver
The PADI Rescue Diver program teaches how to prevent problems from developing into accidents through preparation, vigilance, and recognition of the signs of stress. Stress recognition encompasses not only stress in other divers, but also recognition of stress in yourself. This means that a Rescue Diver does not only help keep a group of divers safe—the Rescue Diver also keeps oneself safe.
This program consists of some classroom time and a challenging weekend that will impress upon you the importance of always being prepared. Below are prices for class tuition only. Contact SPLASH for cost of traning materials and equipment as needed. The class teaches self-rescue as well as how to perform rescues of skin and SCUBA divers, including:
- Emergency management and equipment
- Panicked diver response
- In-water rescue breathing protocols
- Removing an injured or non-responsive person from the water
- Dive accident scenarios
Students receiving certification as a PADI Rescue Diver must hold a current certification in first aid and CPR. Splash offers the PADI Emergency First Response course which satisfies these prerequisites.
