Course Overview

The Rescue Diver course is considered one of the most challenging and demanding of the PADI courses but also undoubtedly one of the most rewarding. If you’re an Advanced Open Water Diver and thinking about taking the next step in your diving career or just looking to try something new, the Rescue Diver course is the course for you! 

Why book this diving course?

Undertaking this course will expand your knowledge and experience in any situation that requires advanced rescuing skills. In this course, you will learn how to be mentally and physically prepared to tackle any rescue situation, and to consider the safety and well-being of other divers. Despite the challenging nature of the course, it is also a fun way to build up a diver’s confidence. 

Course Outline

Students are required to partake in a 1-day classroom session, which will cover all the chapters in the Rescue Diver Manual with discussions to facilitate effective learning. Mastery of the material will be assessed through Knowledge Reviews and Quizzes, and students will also need to pass the Final Exam with a minimum score of 75%. Below are some of the topics you will be learning in the classroom: 

  • Psychology of Rescue 
  • Being Prepared and Responding to Diver Emergencies 
  • Ways and tools for rescue situations e.g. AED, Emergency Oxygen Delivery Systems, Near Drowning, etc. 
  • Identifying and neutralising problems e.g. release function and problems, thermal problems, etc. 
  • Accident Management 
  • Assisting and rescuing

There will be two days of practical sessions, where students will learn to demonstrate their skills and competency in the water.
