Description
The PADI Rescue Diver course will expand your knowledge and experience beyond purely recreational level.
You'll learn to look beyond yourself and consider the safety and well being of other divers and learn how to prevent and handle diving emergencies. The PADI Rescue Diver certification is a prerequisite for all Professional level PADI courses, beginning with the PADI Divemaster certification.
Subjects include self rescue and diver stress, emergency management and equipment, panicked diver response, in-water rescue breathing protocols, egress (exits), and dive accident scenarios.
