EFR – Emergency First Response Course

Emergency First Response Course

EFR
Basic life support through a bystander, family member or co-worker intervention can significantly increase a person’s chance of a successful recovery.

The EFR is a basic training course in emergency care that is not restricted to divers and is a prerequisite for the RAID Master Rescue Course & PADI Rescue Diver Course.

What You’ll Learn

ERF teaches primary care skills for life-threatening emergencies. This includes specific skills for working with adults or children who aren’t breathing or don’t have a heartbeat.

The goal of these skills is to sustain a patient long enough for emergency services to arrive on the scene.

The course also demonstrates what to do if a victim might have a spinal injury, and how to provide first aid to a person who is in shock or has serious bleeding. It covers how to use an automated external defibrillator, an electronic device that may help restore a heartbeat.

In addition to these primary care skills, EFR covers secondary first-aid skills, including assessing a patient’s condition, bandaging and dressing wounds, and splinting broken bones.
