Who developed the course ?
This course was developed by “The Diver Medic” Chantelle Newman. She is a member of the WDHOF, a PADI course director and an experienced Pre-hospital Provider. She developed this program when she noted the lack of emergency medical training available to both recreational divers, and Public Safety divers outside of traditional Commercial/Industrial Courses.
This course is the next level up from basic CPR and first Aid training. It sits between First Aid and EMT level so perfect for all learning. It includes many new applications and information on medical assessments and treatment.
