What to expect with the PADI Rescue
The course is split into 5 academic sessions and 12 open water training sessions. During these sessions you will be taught ways to deal with a variety of dangerous scenarios such as out of air diver, lost diver, unconscious diver, panicked diver and much more.
The Rescue course emphasizes that there is often more than one way to solve a problem and encourages problem solving by setting up roll playing scenarios to closely mimic real life emergencies. Trainees will get to play both victim and rescuer in these scenarios.
Skills will take place on shore, on the surface and underwater. Situations will depend on the environment where the course takes place and make use of all available resources.
DAN O2 Provider Learning Objectives
The emergency oxygen provider course represents an entry level qualification in the identification and treatment of diving related injuries. Early use of oxygen while waiting for evacuation to a medical facility is nearly always beneficial in diving related injuries.
The course will teach divers to identify scuba related injuries such as near drowning and decompression illness (air embolism and decompression sickness).
Students must demonstrate proper assembly, disassembly and deployment of the oxygen unit. This includes use of the demand inhalator valve/mask, constant flow (15ml/m oxygen), non-re breather mask and oronasal resuscitation mask with supplemental oxygen inlet.
Students will also be taught the risks involved in handling 100% oxygen,
