Rescue Diver Course, how does it work?
The course typically takes 3 days to complete but is performance-based training, not time-based. That means you may need more days to complete it fully. Most important is you feel absolutely comfortable as a rescue diver at the end of the course.
Theory Rescue Diver Course
Like any other diving course, you need to start studying the theory. We will send you the theory when you sign up for the course. It means you will complete the theory at your own pace. Afterward, you will review it with your Instructor before taking the final exam.
What you will learn is :
- What is stress and also how to manage stress in other divers
- How to manage an emergency
- How to rescue yourself
- Conditions that complicate rescues
- How to rescue a panicked and unresponsive diver
After it is time to go in the water! First, there are several skills that your instructor will practice with you in the sea. For example, self-rescuing skills, buddy assist, buddy rescue, search patterns, and also in-water rescue breathes. Once you master the skills individually, it will be time to test them in more realistic situations. Hence, your instructor will set up two simulated dive emergencies, which you will then manage from start to finish. Needless to say, you will need to employ the skills acquired during your theory and skills practice to ensure everyone survives.
