- Preventing and caring for shock
- Spinal injury management
- Use of barriers to reduce disease transmission risk
- Basic first aid and first aid kit considerations
This course is run over one day and generally takes 6-8 hours depending on class size and student progression.
Whilst the Emergency First Response Course is a required certification for the PADI Rescue Course, many people find the skills they learn during this course important and invaluable to everyday life.
The class will involve watching the Emergency First Response Primary & Secondary Care DVD, followed by a practical session with your instructor. You will practice different skills for dealing with real-life emergency situations such as CPR, rescue breathing and using an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) which will then be followed by a multiple choice exam.
Upon completion of the course you will receive a certification card valid for 2 years.
