EFR Primary and Secondary Care course, Milan

If you love diving and want to expand your knowledge in the field of first aid here is the right course for you.

Held by expert instructors, the Emergency First Response Course is divided into two levels, primary and secondary care. You can specify the level you want to attend once you have purchased the coupon.

The topics covered vary depending on the level of the course, but both are dedicated to teaching first aid maneuvers and the first care that is necessary to provide in the event of an accident, both in and out of the water.

• CPR (Emergency First Responde Primary Care): it is the first level of the first aid course, during which you will learn to respond to emergency situations. Theoretical knowledge will be combined with practical exercises, staging realistic situations to increase participants' confidence in their abilities to deal with emergency situations. You will learn to evaluate the safety of the scene, taking the necessary precautions by evaluating the primary condition of the person in difficulty. You will then learn to carry out artificial respiration and cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, managing situations of airway obstruction or hemorrhages or a state of shock as well as spinal injuries.

• First Aid (Emergency First Response Secondary Care): this course is dedicated to teaching the procedures to follow in the event of situations which, although not immediately life-threatening, need to be addressed and resolved . During the lessons, participants will therefore learn various secondary first aid care techniques, increasing their theoretical knowledge and rescue skills. The topics covered will be: assessment of injuries and diseases and the application of bandages and splints in case of dislocations or fractures. Furthermore, we will touch on topics of allergic reactions, burns, suffocationand much more.

Both courses will take place in the classroom, and are therefore suitable for everyone, even those who do not practice diving. The patent has a duration of 2 years and it will be possible to renew it through an update.
