Step Up in a Crisis with PADI Emergency First Response

Emergencies don’t wait for the “right time.” They can happen anywhere—at home, on the road, or even underwater. That’s why the PADI Emergency First Response (EFR) Course is one of the most empowering courses you’ll ever take. This one-day program gives you the confidence and skills to act fast and make a real difference when it matters most.

The PADI Emergency First Response course is designed for everyone—not just divers. You’ll learn how to manage medical emergencies with calm and clarity. From CPR (primary care) to first aid (secondary care), this course teaches you how to handle a wide range of real-world situations. It’s a required step for the PADI Divemaster course and pairs perfectly with the PADI Rescue Diver course—but it’s just as valuable for parents, teachers, travelers, or anyone wanting to be prepared.

You’ll walk away with the ability to support someone in distress until professional help arrives—whether it’s a deep cut, an allergic reaction, or a roadside accident. The PADI Emergency First Response course is about becoming the person others can rely on during a crisis.

Ready to take action? Join the PADI Emergency First Response course with ScubaLov and gain life-saving skills you’ll carry forever.

Curious about how this course fits into your dive training? Head over to our blog to learn more about the PADI Emergency First Response journey and how it builds the foundation for becoming a rescue-ready diver.

I use prescription medication. Can I dive?

It depends on the medication and your health condition. Before diving, you’ll need to fill out a medical form. If you answer “yes” to any questions, you’ll need clearance from a doctor to ensure it’s safe for you to dive. Safety first!

When do I need to get a medical clearance from my doctor?

If you have any pre-existing medical condition, you will need a medical clearance from your doctor/physician. If you are above 50 years of age, you will need a medical clearance from your doctor/physician even if you have no medical conditions. If you are under 50 years of age and have no medical conditions, you can sign a self-declaration.

I am a doctor. Can I sign my own medical form?

Even if you’re a doctor, it’s recommended to have another medical professional sign your form. This ensures an unbiased evaluation of your fitness to dive and aligns with diving safety protocols.

Is it really necessary to check the PADI Medical Form?

We strongly advise that you check the PADI Medical Statement before signing up for a course and traveling to the Andaman. We will need to see a medical clearance in case of a pre-existing medical condition, or when you above 50 years of age,  without it you cannot dive! On the island, you will not find a doctor who can assess your medical condition.

I am not a swimmer. Can I experience scuba diving in the Andaman Islands?

Of course! You can sign up for the PADI Discover Scuba Diving Program, an experienced dive professional will accompany you at all times. They can swim for you if required! For the Open Water Course swimming is a must as we will ask you to swim tor 200 meters (or snorkel for 300 meters) and float for 10 minutes in water to deep to stand up in.

What is the age limit for Scuba Diving?

The minimum age for scuba diving is 10 years old for most PADI programs. There’s no maximum age as long as you’re healthy and meet the medical requirements. However, as per local Andaman rules, the minimum age is 12 years and maximum age is 60 years.

How long do need to wait to fly after diving?

You need to wait for at least 12 hours before you can fly after a single dive and at least 18 hours after multiple dives. 

How deep can I dive?

Your diving depth depends on your certification level. If you have signed up for Discover Scuba Dive, the maximum depth you dive to will be 12 metres (40 feet). Open Water Certified Divers can dive to 18 metres, while Advanced Open Water Certified Divers can go up to 30 metres. Only divers certified with Deep Speciality can dive upto 40 metres, which is the depth limit of recreational diving.
