Our premier program is a must for all dive team members. From scene evaluation to incident debriefing the Dive Rescue 1 (DR1) program covers it all. Diving and surface support personnel will learn to apply the latest techniques in underwater rescue and recovery to prepare them to respond effectively and safely to water incidents. Get started on your way to our more advanced and trainer level programs with DR1. This program is presented in the classroom, pool, and open water to allow students to become familiar with the techniques prior to field scenarios.
