SSI Stress & Rescue + React Right

The Stress & Rescue program at Tom’s Dive & Swim is one of the most empowering and transformative courses a diver can take. This training goes beyond improving your own comfort underwater — it teaches you how to recognize, prevent, and manage problems before they escalate, making every dive safer for you and your buddies.

As part of this program, you’ll also complete React Right, the essential first‑aid, CPR, AED, and emergency oxygen administration course required for Stress & Rescue certification. React Right gives you the knowledge and confidence to respond effectively in real‑world situations, both in and out of the water. Together, these programs create a powerful combination of preparedness, awareness, and leadership.

Through hands‑on practice, scenario‑based training, and expert guidance from Tom’s Dive & Swim instructors, you’ll sharpen your situational awareness, strengthen your rescue skills, and become the diver others look to when it matters most.
