PADI Rescue Diver Course

Our PADI Rescue Diver training is run regularly throughout the year. Conducted over two days, the course is a fun combination of self-study and energetic rescue skills practiced in confined and open water environments.

The PADI Rescue program is divided between knowledge development, confined water training and open water training. The knowledge development portion is handled through independent study at home in your own time. These materials give you the necessary information you need for preventing and handling diving emergencies, with topics including self rescue, diver stress, diving first aid, emergency management, equipment problems, and rescue and assistance procedures for both conscious and unconscious victims on the surface and underwater.

Having learnt a variety of rescue techniques in confined water, these will be put into practice during a day of open water rescue scenarios, expect the unexpected!

The course is designed to train individuals as safe self-reliant divers, learning to recognise and prevent potential problems, as well as being able to deal with a rescue situation confidently and effectively, should it occur.

We strongly believe that divers who have participated in the PADI Rescue diver course return to the diving environment as competent buddies to other qualified divers whilst showing an attitude of awareness and responsibility by their desire to obtain this valuable qualification.

It is a requirement that the candidate has been trained in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation techniques and basic First Aid prior to this course. If you require this training our PADI Emergency First Response course covers all necessary requirements. (Please ask for details).
