Rescue Diver CoursePADI Rescue Diver - £350 (Rescue Diver and Emergency First Response Combined £410)
The PADI Rescue Diver programme will expand your knowledge and experience beyond recreational level. You’ll learn to look beyond yourself and consider the safety and well-being of other divers. Although this course is serious, it is an enjoyable way to build your confidence. Rescue Diver training will prepare you to prevent problems, and if necessary manage dive emergencies.
The course includes 1 Knowledge Development session, 3 pool sessions and 2 days at open water. During the course, you will learn how to deal with various rescue situations, from panicked divers at the surface, to searching for and rescuing an unresponsive diver underwater. Each of our pool sessions is 2 and a half hours long, which means you have plenty of time for practicing new skills and techniques.
The Knowledge Development sessions take place in one of our on-site classrooms. The pool sessions take place at the Hewett School. The open water dives take place at Gildenburgh Water in Whittlesey, which is the perfect environment for preparing you to manage dive emergencies.
You need to have a First Aid and CPR qualification to participate in the Rescue Diver course. If you haven’t got this, it can be arranged as part of your course. We conduct the Emergency First Response course which covers these requirements. You also have the option of completing the DAN Oxygen Provider course to enhance your learning in this area.

Please Note: In order to enrol on the PADI Rescue Diver course, you must hold a current first aid/CPR certification such as the Emergency First Response (EFR) detailed above.
