SSI Scuba Explorers - Rescue

A continuation of the SCUBA Explorer's program: Rescue Explorers learn to identify an emergency situation, learn to initiate the rescue chain, and practice the duties of each member of the chain. They will learn the additional steps involved when the emergency involves a diving accident, and how to include the Divers Alert Network. They will encounter simulated emergency situations, simulate calls to EMS as well as DAN, and demonstrate how to manage the scene of the emergency.

What To Do Before Class:

Participants must have already completed the introductory, three day SSI Scuba Explorers Program.  All waivers must be signed and there must be a current parent or guardian-signed waiver on file.

If it has been close or at least one year since last completed, please update the Diver Medical / Participant Questionnaire at: https://dolphinscuba.com/content/pdf/downloadable-forms/RSTC_MEDICAL_FORM.pdf

What to Expect In Class
