All about the trip

Join us at the Lefkas Diving Center for a course in learning to be a PADI Rescue Diver!

This 3-day course is a very important step in expanding your knowledge and experience as well as increasing your confidence. As with all Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) courses, it is ‘performance’ based. This course involves knowledge, development, and 5 rescue training sessions (in pool, confined or open water, from shore or boat) plus 4 open water rescue scenarios. During these sessions, you will cover, the psychology of rescue, preparation for emergencies, accident management, responding to diver emergencies, self-rescue, tired diver, panicked diver, response from shore or boat with both a responsive and unresponsive diver, distressed diver underwater, missing diver, surfacing the unresponsive diver, response at surface exit, first aid for pressure-related injuries, and lastly, oxygen administration.

Before starting module 2 of the Rescue Diver course, you must complete an Emergency First Response course within 24 months, or an equivalent ‘accepted’ certification including primary care (CPR) and secondary care (First Aid) within 24 months.

We do also ask all guests to complete a day’s diving before starting the Rescue Course, to check weights, buoyancy, and equipment.
