🌊 From Training to Reality 🚨When a Course Turned into a Real-Life Rescue 🌊
📍 Perhentian Island Resort | 22 June 2025

What started as just another day of our Aquatic Life Support Course quickly turned into a real emergency.

At around 12:36 PM, during our lunch break on the beach, one of our instructors suddenly heard cry for help coming from the sea. A family of Chinese tourist, a father and his daughter, around 5 years old — were struggling in the open water.

Within seconds, our team jumped into action.
Four instructors with aids sprinted into the water, while six others raced to grab emergency equipment — life jackets, AED, and our medical bag.

When we reached the scene, the situation was more critical than expected — five individuals were signaling for help, and the father and daughter were barely staying afloat. Thankfully, five off-duty foreign firefighters who happened to be nearby had already started to bring up the victims, however they were struggling to bring them back to shore.

Our instructors immediately joined forces with them. Floatation devices were secured, and together, we brought both victims safely back to land.

🩺On the beach, our medical support team was ready.
The victims received immediate care — including oxygen support. The AED remained on standby. We monitored both father and daughter closely. Thankfully, they remained stable.

🛟After initial assessment, the victims were advised to seek further medical attention if symptoms appeared. Resort staff and the tourist family expressed deep gratitude for the team’s quick response.

💡Points to ponder:
1. Never enter water for rescue unless you are trained
2. Dry rescue is always prioritized compared to wet rescue
3. Equip self with right equipment for the right activity
4. Water safety awareness is crucial in, the eye doesnt see what the mind doesnt know
