NAUI Master Scuba Diver 190 Rescue and Emergency Procedures ing, such as in cave, wreck, ice, and deep diving. Some essential techniques that you will use as an independent diver (i.e. not under direct supervision) have been discussed in this chapter. You are encouraged to seek additional training for diving situations with which you are not familiar or trained. By now, you should be acutely aware that additional training is essential in order to effectively perform the rescue of a diver, administer first aid, manage the accident, and coordinate the evacuation of the victim. Only the fundamentals of these topics have been addressed in this chapter. Get the recommended training so you will be prepared. Know what to do, how to do it, and decide in advance that if an accident occurs you will act to the safe limits of your training and capability. FOR FURTHER READING Auerbach, P.
