Description
Why should you take the IDF Rescue Diver course?
Rescue skills are among the most valuable skills that every diver should have. The people you dive with are often very close to you, and in case of problems, you would certainly want to be able to help them effectively. During the training, you will learn important techniques that will enable you to assist a diver who is exhausted, panicked or experiencing other problems that require the intervention of a dive buddy. Your instructor will also make sure that you practise a full rescue operation, from rescuing an unconscious diver from the bottom, to towing them to shore, pulling them out – whether to shore, a boat or a platform – and providing first aid on the surface.
