EMERGENCY LIFE SAVER™ (ELS)
Maritime Emergency Medical Training
Because Help May Be Hours Away.
Medical emergencies don't wait until you're back at the dock. Whether you're fishing offshore, cruising with family, or operating a sportfishing vessel, you are often the first—and only—medical responder until professional help arrives.
The D-DEY Offshore Emergency Life Saver™ (ELS) course was created to give boat owners, captains, crew members, and families the confidence and skills necessary to manage medical emergencies at sea.
This intensive full-day, hands-on program combines nationally recognized certifications with practical maritime medical training designed specifically for the unique challenges of the offshore environment.
At D-DEY, our mission is simple:
Empower. Train. Equip.
Because preparation saves lives.
