Bronze Medallion
If you’re 15 years or above and looking to get started as a lifesaver this is the award for you! Prospective lifesavers below the age of 15 can start with their Surf Rescue Certificate (SRC) which is an award similar to the bronze minus a few units (see information below).
The bronze medallion is an all-rounder award which equips you with all the basics required to become a successful lifesaver. Wye River runs a Bronze Camp every year in mid December. In this hands on, action packed and fun week topics include:
- Rescue techniques
- First aid
- Resuscitation
- Tows & carries
- Basic OH&S
- Radio operation
- Communication skills
- Swimming and paddling techniques
- Inflatable rescue boat (introduction)
- Beach and RIP types and dangers
- Scanning and profiling techniques
- Many more skills
