PADI Rescue Diver Course Success

Another weekend finished, another bunch of happy divers with nice new certifications!

We’d like to congratulate Jenny, Jon, Paul and Mark who completed their PADI Rescue Diver over the weekend. They certainly didn’t have an easy ride and by the end of Saturday were suitably exhausted from all of their hard work.

Syd and Darren put them through their paces ensuring that they completed all of the skills required such as dealing with a panicked diver in the water, reacting to a missing diver situation, bringing an unconscious diver to the surface and rendering assistance to an unconscious diver on the surface, as well as many more.

Working in teams, the PADI Rescue students were not only expected to help with emergency situations but actually to manage the situation and control the scene. It wasn’t all hard work though; they all enjoyed the course immensely and had a good laugh throughout. They all came away with a great sense of achievement and we are sure they’ll go away feeling confident to assist another diver should the need ever arise. Well done!
