The Theory Part

This part will be conducted online via the MySSI app, where you’ll have access to the manual, videos, knowledge reviews, and exams. Study wherever, whenever, and at your own pace.

During the theory portion of the Stress and Rescue course, you will learn:

  • How to recognize and prevent diver stress and emergencies.
  • Self-rescue techniques.
  • Rescue skills range from cramp removal for yourself and your buddy to underwater unconscious diver rescue.
  • An overview of various rescue scenarios.
  • Considerations regarding scuba diving equipment.

You’ll also explore a wide range of additional topics, providing comprehensive and enlightening theoretical training.”

The Confined Water Section

With this section of the course, conducted in confined waters (maximum depth of 6 meters), you will refresh the rescue techniques and skills learned during your Open Water course.

You will also learn and practice various new skills to assist and aid other divers

Consists of 3 sessions, and here’s what we will teach you in each one:

  • Identifying stress and mastering self-rescue.
  • Helping a diver in anxiety or panic.
  • Rescuing an unconscious diver.

You’ll learn, practice, and master each of these skills, preparing to apply them in open water scenarios.

The Open Water Training

Rescue isn’t merely about going through a set of learned steps during your training dives.

It requires critical thinking to assess and respond to situations effectively, ensuring safety for all.

That’s why, during this open water phase, we’ll create scenarios to teach you prevention and response skills for emergencies.

While it’s the most demanding and complex segment, it’s also the most rewarding and enjoyable.

In addition to knowledge, skills, and fun…

With the SSI Stress and Rescue course, you get all of this.

We provide everything you need for diving, but don’t forget to bring:

  • Your swimsuit.
  • A towel to dry off after dives.

No. 

You need to wait 12 hours before flying after a single dive, and a minimum of 18 hours after multiple dives. 

We recommend scheduling your rescue course at the beginning of your vacation so you can do more dives, as the practical water sessions in the course are not leisure dives.

  • You can dive with a buddy who holds Open Water certification or higher.
  • With your certification in hand, you can explore dive sites on any remote island on the planet, as long as there is a dive center or diving boat available.
  • You can plan your own dives with your dive buddy. 
  • Attention! You can dive to a maximum depth of 30 meters if you have completed the SSI Advanced Adventurer course and the deep diving specialty.
  • The SSI Rescue course qualifies you to start your professional career in recreational diving with the SSI Divemaster course.

Yes, and hurry because spots fill up fast. 

We need to have an idea of how many people will come so we can prepare properly and ensure everything is comfortable for everyone. 

Don’t worry if something changes in your plans. If you can’t make it, we can reschedule your booking for another time that suits you or even refund 100% of what you’ve paid. 

So, get started today!
