If you're aiming to be a PADI Rescue Diver
Even if you are not a SCUBA DIver, learning CPR and First-Aid skills - and, crucially, building your confidence to be able and ready to intervene in an emergency - may enable YOU to make the difference between being a bystander, at a road crash or an accident at home or on holiday, and being someone who can save and sustain a life until the Emergency Services can arrive and take over from you.
The EFR Emergency First Response course meets these requirements and goes even further, to explain Automated External Defibrillation and Emergency Oxygen Provision.
EFR Emergency First Response is an HSE approved course which meets the "First Aider in the Workplace" requirements.
The course is divided into three modules:
-Primary Care (CPR)
-Automated External Defibrillation (AED)
-Secondary Care (First Aid)
Primary Care
This module prepares you to render emergency care for life-threatening problems such as heart-stoppage, someone who is not breathing, someone who is bleeding badly, someone who is in shock, or someone with a spinal injury. You will learn to to assess the scene of the emergency, and the priorities for maintaining the patient's lifeline: the "ABCDS" of Primary Care (you may also be familiar with DR ABC).
Automated External Defibrillation (AED)
You'll learn what an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is and how and when you should use one to help a patient who's heart has stopped or is twitching without a proper rhythm (fibrillating). You'll learn where you can find AEDs in public places, and you can have a demonstration of our own paramedic AED unit. You'll practise emergency scenarios using a dummy and an AED training unit.
Secondary Care (First Aid)
This module prepares you to render emergency care for common first aid problems that are not immediately life-threatening. You also learn what to do until the Emergency Services arrive.
For each module, you'll study a candidate manual, watch a video, and take part in practical skill-development exercises in an EFR workshop, with an Instructor and other candidates.
NOTE: Your CPR and First Aid training remains current for a period of 24 calendar months, when it must be renewed with an EFR Emergency First Responder Refresher course.
If you last trained more than two years ago, you need to book an EFR Emergency First Responder Refresher Course as soon as possible (please see below).
If you trained in MFA (Medic First Aid) or a non-PADI course, such as a St. John Ambulance or Red Cross course, we also offer crossover refresher courses (please see below).
