The PADI Emergency First Response or EFR course is a world-renowned course that will offer you the knowledge and skills necessary to act and provide support in an emergency to friends, family and even strangers who may be in trouble.

Primary Care (CPR) skills you will learn in this course:

Situation analysis, use of barriers, first assessment, CPR with chest compressions and rescue breaths (CPR), management of severe bleeding, management of shock, management of spinal cord injuries, and management of adults conscious or unconscious choking.
