Emergency First Response
Learn first aid and CPR with simple, confidence-building steps
Emergency First Response (EFR) training
Learn first aid and CPR with clear, simple-to-follow steps for emergency care. This course focuses on building confidence in lay rescuers and increasing their willingness to respond when faced with a medical emergency.
If you’re getting into scuba—or continuing your education—Emergency First Response is a great way to build practical skills you can use in and out of the water.
Who it’s for (and why people take it)
Emergency First Response is a good fit if you want to be better prepared for real-world situations and feel more confident stepping in to help.
People often take EFR to:
- Learn basic first aid and CPR skills
- Build confidence to respond in an emergency
- Support their scuba training and continuing education
