Emergency First Response (EFR)
Cost: R1500.00 per person
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 everyday life. They have taken a significant step in emergency preparedness, and feel confident that they can provide care should an emergency situation arise.
As one of the foremost international CPR and first aid training companies, Emergency First Response gives you the confidence to respond to medical emergencies – not just in the diving world, but in your everyday world with your family, friends, neighbours and co-workers too.
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.

Flexible time schedules for full-time or part-time candidates.
Day one: Knowledge review and Rescue Scenarios in the pool
Day two: Knowledge review and Rescue scenarios in the sea
