The PADI EFR course is a training program that involves knowledge development sessions using manuals, videos, and demonstrations, as well as practice sessions. It is scheduled over 1 day. Taking the course does not have any minimum age requirement or other pre-requisites. Emergency First Response Primary Care (CPR) teaches participants how to respond to life-threatening emergencies. The course focuses on primary care through a combination of knowledge development, skill development and realistic scenario practice to make sure participants have the confidence in their ability to provide care when an emergency situation arises.
Emergency first response course scope
The emergency responder training is divided into two parts:
- Primary Care. This teaches you about CPR, including chest compression and rescue breathing. It also includes scene assessment, monitoring the victim’s condition, and maintaining his or her lifeline before professional help arrives.
- Secondary care. Otherwise known as the First aid training, this part lets you learn first aid for common injuries. You will learn about bandaging and splinting, and protection against pathogens.
