Medical Trained

Safety is important in diving. That is inculcated by every instructor. But unfortunately an accident can happen very quickly. Therefore it is important that as many people as possible are able to give first aid. The IDD Medical Trained course is suitable for everyone who wants to be able to offer first aid. Both in the water and on land. At home, at the office or while diving. The course is also suitable as part of the BHV & ARBO code 95 company first aid. If you are interested in the course, check with your employer. They will undoubtedly be pleased if you want to do this.

This course is also required for anyone wishing to take the Rescue Diver course and/or Open Water Instructor course.
