PADI Emergency First Response
Why Emergency First Response?
Emergency First Response (EFR) is the fastest-growing international CPR, Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) and First Aid training organization. Dedicated to training the lay rescuer, EFR courses encompasses adult, child and infant CPR skills, provides AED and First Aid training, and feature an outstanding First Aid at Work component.
Many divers take the Emergency First Response courses to meet program prerequisites, such as PADI Rescue Diver, or as preparation for becoming a PADI Divemaster. However, most have also found the EFR program to be important in every day life. They have taken a significant step in emergency preparedness, and feel confident that they can provide care should an emergency situation arise.
The Emergency First Response program meets requirements for CPR and First Aid in the workplace and incorporates the latest procedures for emergency patient care.
What do I need to start?
No dive certification required
No minimum age limit
What will I do?
The course incorporates independent study to prepare you for a classroom and hands-on skill development session with your instructor. You will learn the same patient care techniques used by medical professionals, but at a lay person level.
Are you really prepared?
Are you really prepared? Could you safely and effectively provide first aid in an emergency situation? Have you the first aid skills to save a life?
Much of first aid is common sense. Basic principles, such as knowing how to use an adhesive bandage or applying direct pressure on a bleed, are often acquired passively through life experiences. However, to provide effective, life-saving first aid interventions requires instruction and practical training.
As with any training, it is more useful if it occurs before an actual emergency!
At Seamonkey Dive Center we can provide training that will allow you to deliver first aid effectively through our Emergency First Response (EFR) programme.
