First Aid and CPR

Why? First aid is the immediate care given to an injured person and consists of providing temporary assistance until a professional medical attention can be obtained. It's one of the most important skills to have in order to dive safely! Be a good diving buddy and maintain your certification. It's better to know first aid and not need it than to need it and not know it. A delay of as little as four minutes when a person's heart stops can mean the difference between life and death. This class is offered through the National Safety Council (NSC) or American Safety and Health Institute (ASHI).
