PADI - Rescue Review
The PADI Rescue Review program fulfills many functions within the PADI System of diver education. Its primary purpose is to help certified divers update their dive knowledge and skills, especially after a period of diving inactivity. The Rescue Review program may be used to preassess PADI Rescue Divers.
The program’s versatility and flexibility makes it useful as a diver acquisition and retention tool for PADI Members.
The PADI Rescue Review program consists of two parts:
- 1. a Knowledge Review
- 2. a Confined Water Skills Review. There is also an optional open water dive.
The Knowledge Review segment covers the basic safety information divers learn during their rescue training.
The Confined Water Skills Review allows participants to practice rescue skills. With guidance from a PADI Instructor, divers update and fine-tune their rescue ability.
