The PADI Rescue Diver course prepares you to deal with dive emergencies, minor and major, using a variety of techniques.
Through knowledge development and rescue exercises, you learn what to look for and how to respond. During rescue scenarios, you put into practice your knowledge and skills.
The rescue diver course is a crucial step in a diver’s skill development.
For the first time in their diving education, rescue divers learn to look beyond themselves to consider the safety and well-being of other divers, which is why being a competent rescue diver is a prerequisite for all leadership-level training within the structure of most major diving agencies.
Even if a diver never intends to pursue a professional diving career, the rescue diver course is still invaluable.
