SSI React Right

Virginia Scuba's SSI React Right specialty course is designed to equip you with vital emergency response skills, ensuring you can act effectively in critical situations. This program focuses on the essential components of first aid and emergency care, preparing you to provide assistance until professional medical help arrives. It's a fundamental course for any diver aiming to enhance their personal safety and preparedness within the diving community.

The core curriculum of the React Right program includes Primary Assessment, First Aid & CPR Skills, and Primary Stabilization Techniques. These modules offer a robust foundation for managing life-threatening emergencies, teaching you how to assess a victim's condition, perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and administer immediate care to stabilize the situation. Mastering these skills can significantly impact the outcome of an emergency.

Beyond the core components, the program offers two highly recommended optional modules: Oxygen Administration in Diving Emergencies and Automated External Defibrillation Basics.
