Basic Life Support for Dive Professionals
This is a prerequisite course for Stress &
Rescue!
|
|
The remote nature of dive accidents, whether a few hours from shore or
days from civilization, frequently requires more advanced levels of care
than is offered by traditional or entry-level CPR programs.
Basic Life Support for Dive Professionals (BLS Pro) is ideal for dive
professionals and divers interested in understanding professional-level
resuscitation techniques.
This course addresses basic life support skills for adults, children
and infants. |
