Order of rescues
Aquatic rescues can happen during everyday activities, so knowing what to do matters. The aquatic rescue sequence outlines seven dry and water-based rescue techniques, showing how to help someone safely while reducing risk to yourself.
Spinal Injuries
Spinal injuries in the water often result from diving or head impact and can lead to permanent damage to the spinal cord. Learn the key warning signs and the essential steps for safely managing a suspected spinal injury in both shallow and deep water.
