So what is this course? The Diver Emergency Medical Responder Course is a course designed for Dive Leaders, Dive Instructors, Scientific Divers, Police, Fire and Public Safety Divers.


The course is of an Advanced Level of First Aid. We want you to put all of your skills learned in the 5 days to be able to tackle any Diving Emergency and feel confident you did everything you could to help. We have a very busy schedule and you will be expected to do a number of real-life scenarios through the course, so a lot of hands on.
What are the Pre-requisites to do the course:
Having learned CPR and First aid in the past would be of an advantage, however you will learn everything you need to during the course. You must be of good health and able to do a lot of moving and handling of people.
Do I have to be an EMT/Paramedic to do the course? No not at all. We do not teach invasive procedures on this course and it is a field based course not a Hyperbaric course.
Subjects covered in the 5 day course:
Role and Responsibility of a Diver Responder, Incident Assessment, Patient Assessment, Airway Assessment,
Oxygen Administration, CPR and AED, Breathing Difficulties, Anaphylaxis, Diabetes, Head Injuries, Seizures
Heart Conditions, Vital Signs, Management of minor and catastrophic bleeding, Poisoning
