The PADI Rescue Diver course is pivotal in expanding a diver's knowledge and experience. Rescue Divers learn to look beyond themselves, and begin to consider the safety and well-being of other divers. This is why the PADI Rescue Diver certification is a prerequisite for all PADI leadership-level training (PADI Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, and PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor). Rescue Diver training expands the basic problem prevention and accident management skills student divers learn beginning with the PADI Open Water Diver course. At the Rescue Diver level, students are ready to learn to manage more complex dive emergencies and to apply direct intervention techniques to assist others in an emergency. By its nature, the course is demanding, though realistic in its conduct, content and approach. Although the nature and context in which rescue training may be used is serious, this course should be an enjoyable challenge that builds up your confidence.

There is more than one way to accomplish a task and keep all your equipment in sight together or know where you put it!
