Emergency First Response gives you the skills you need to perform CPR and First Aid. Whether you’re a diver or a non-diver, Emergency First Response helps you to properly handle potentially life-threatening situations. This comprehensive program contains two core modules that can be taught in tandem or as stand-alone courses:
Emergency First Response – Primary Care and Emergency First Response – Secondary Care. Together, these courses provide extensive instruction in CPR and First Aid, as well as providing optional (yet recommended) Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and Emergency Oxygen sections. This course is usually conducted over one day.

As with all PADI courses, it is ‘performance’ based and involves classroom, confined water and beach skill development sessions followed by five open water training sessions. Self-rescue and diver stress; diving first aid; emergency management; equipment considerations; tired diver; panicked diver; response from shore or boat with both a conscious and unconscious victim; distressed diver; surfacing an unconscious diver; unconscious diver at the surface; egress with an unconscious diver; first aid for pressure related injuries; underwater search scenario; response, egress and management scenarios.
