PADI Rescue Diver & E.F.R. Courses at Phra Thong Island

About Us

Emergency First Response

The E.F.R. (Emergency First Response) course is a 1 day non-diving certification, required to proceed onto the PADI Rescue Diver course.

It is an internationally recognized qualification that equips the student with basic first aid techniques, which are of benefit in day-to-day life as well as diving scenarios. As such, the course is also open to non-divers and divers of any level.

 

Rescue Diver....the most rewarding PADI course?

Building upon what you have learned during previous PADI courses, the PADI Rescue Diver Course expands on what you already know about how to prevent problems.

Most divers find this course physically demanding but the education and rescue scenarios build confidence in your diving and the ability to help others in an emergency situation.
