During our Honolulu PADI Rescue Diver course, you learn to become a better buddy by practicing problem solving skills that might arise while SCUBA diving.
You also need to have Emergency First Response Primary and Secondary Care (CPR and First Aid) training within the past 24 months. You can complete this training during the Rescue Diver course or prior as you prefer.
