Downey DuckRescue Diver 
Rescue training expands your knowledge of diving, increases your level of diving skill, and teaches you how to prevent diving problems. Rescue Diver certification is also an important prerequisite for the Master Diver and Divemaster rating.  Most importantly, rescue training can help you save lives and increase safety by preparing you to respond properly to diving problems and emergencies.  

Overview

Preventing/managing diving emergencies.  There's even more. Rescue Diver is a unique course that not only provides the skills to make you a safe diver and a better dive buddy, but it's also basic for anyone thinking of becoming a diving professional. This engrossing program teaches you to focus on other divers, as well as yourself, and shows you how to recognize and prevent a diving accident before it occurs, and how to respond if one does. Although the subject matter is serious, the course is both intensely rewarding and enjoyable. 

Program Steps

  1. Watch the video and read the Rescue Diver manual. Also complete the knowledge review. This must be done before the rescue seminars. It is important that you be well prepared but don't worry if there is anything that you don't understand. We'll go over all the details and answer your question during the seminar.
  2. Attend the rescue seminar on Friday evening from 6:30-9:30PM. Be sure to bring everything in your packet. We will review the knowledge review, answer your questions, and guide you through practical applications to prepare you for your dives. There will be a written exam at the conclusion of the seminar.
  3. Join us for two days of rescue diving training exercises at one of the local lakes. Plan on beginning at 9:30 AM and finishing around 3:30 PM both days
