While Scuba Diving is an intrinsically safe sport, the PADI Rescue Diver course prepares you to deal with dive emergencies, minor and major (above and below the surface), using a variety of techniques. Through
knowledge development and rescue exercises, you learn what to look for and how to respond. During rescue scenarios, you put into practice your knowledge and skills. The different topics include: Self
rescue, recognising and managing panic, fear and stress in other divers and ultimately being equipped to prevent emergency situations and provide emergency care if the situation arises.

During the course you will learn how to assist a tired diver at the surface and a panicked diver at the surface. You will practice some search patterns underwater with the aid of a compass to help you locate a missing buddy. You will learn how to surface, assess and transport an unresponsive diver with appropriate recovery for restoring breathing. You will also learn methods for exiting an
unresponsive diver from the water.
At Nusa Penida Dive Center, we make sure you are well-equipped to handle emergencies above and below the surface. We also make sureyou have a great team to support you and HAVE FUN!!!
