WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO ME?
This PADI Emergency o2 Provider Speciality course is an entry-level emergency oxygen course that also teaches you how to recognise dive illnesses treatable by emergency oxygen and will enable you to administer and provide emergency oxygen to others as you discover the benefits and recognize the uses of emergency oxygen treatment. Though suited for divers, this course has no prerequisites and doesn’t include dives, which means it is equally applicable to those who are around divers ? boat crew, non diving buddies, lifeguards, and shore staff.
