Emergency First Response Course: Primary Care (CPR) and Secondary Care (First Aid)

Learn how to respond to medical emergencies. Every active scuba diver should consider having First Aid Training

Statistics show you are more likely to give first aid to someone you know than a stranger. When minutes count, you’ll be the person to give the necessary aid to a family member, dive buddy or co-workers, before Emergency Medical Services (EMS) arrive.

Our  Emergency First Response Course is serious, but taught in a positive, upbeat environment with some great simulated scenarios and more.

Here’s what you’ll learn in Your PADI EFR Course:

• BLS (Basic Life Support) CPR and rescue breathing at the layperson level
• AED (automated external defibrillator) use (optional)
• Preventing and caring for shock
• Spinal injury management
• Use of barriers to reduce disease transmission risk
• Basic first aid: Illness & Injury Assessment, Bandaging, Management of fractures & dislocations, and first aid kit considerations

Additional Details

This course is a prerequisite for PADI Rescue Diver and PADI Divemaster.
