PADI Rescue Diver Course September/October 2024
“Challenging” and “rewarding” best describe the PADI Rescue Diver Course
Learn how to turn yourself into the best buddy, increase your safety, recognise problems before they occur
Our next PADI Rescue Course will be running on Sunday 8th September and Sunday 6th October 2024.
Most divers cite the Rescue course to be the best course they took, whilst serious and testing, you will learn so much to improve your dive skills, and learn to look out for your fellow dive buddies.
We don’t like to think about it but accidents happen, rescue training expands your knowledge of diving, increases your dive skills, and makes you more aware of what’s happening around you. The course helps you recognise and respond to potential diving emergencies in the unlikely event that they should occur.
As a pre-requisite to the Rescue Diver course, you need a valid First Aid certification, taken within the last 24 months, the Emergency First Response course meets the necessary First Aid training required as part of the PADI Rescue Diver course.
If you are a rescue diver who’s First Aid course was over 2 years ago, you will need to do an update, so why not join us on the next E.F.R course, which is running on Sunday 1st September.
