The PADI rescue Diver Course, together with the Emergency First Response (EFR) Course, prepares a diver for accident management. He/ she will learn how to foresee, prevent, and manage potential diving accidents. From assisting a tired diver to handling possible emergency scenarios, a diver will practice applying the knowledge and skills that can make the difference in the unlikely event problems do arise. Medic First Aid trains a diver in first aid and CPR, and meets an important prerequisite for the Rescue Diver Course.
