PADI RESCUE DIVER COURSE

Course information:
The PADI Rescue Diver course is designed to train individuals as self-reliant divers, learning to recognize and prevent potential problems and deal with emergency situations confidently and effectively. This comprehensive course includes a manual, theory sessions, confined and open water skills practice and culminates in full open water rescue scenarios. Minimum equipment required-mask, fins and snorkel, although at this level most students would have alot of their own kit. The shop at Divers Down is well stocked with all basic equipment which can be purchased if required.

A First Aid certification, including CPR, is required for Rescue Diver certification.
PADI Rescue Divers may enroll on the PADI Divemaster course and any Specialty courses.
