First Aid kit [4.02kb]Intermediate/Advanced Diving course - Emergency First Responce and First Aid

One of the things learned in previous training courses has been looking after yourself and others - the buddy system. The PADI Emergency First Response and First Aid course is designed to give you the skills and understanding required, in the event that you were called upon to help another in difficulty, whether it be at work, diving, or at home, you will be able to deal with the situation confidently.

This is a recently introduced course from PADI and supersedes the previous Medic First Course. The course content and delivery are much improved and include the use of more modern training equipment such as programmable Manikins and Defibrillators.

The course can be delivered in one day in two parts. The first session is “Primary Care” in which you'll practice and learn CPR. The final session is First Aid, where you’ll learn to recognise other symptoms, enabling you to make quick decisions, apply bandages etc and maintain a circle of care, until the professionals arrive.

This course is delivered at your pace using video and workbook training aids. The session is performance based, giving you plenty of opportunity to practice your skills. If you have already undertaken a recognised first aid course within the last two years, this may be counted toward Advanced Diver + or The Rescue Diver Programme.

This course can be undertaken as part of a holiday package if required. The cost of the training can be built in the holiday package and is very competitive.
