Check with your Club DO or training officer, whether the Medic course is valid.

The DER is the same as the diver medic course, with one addon: AED (Automatic External Defibrillator). Check with your DO, but you might just need to do that part.

Having say that, it's good idea to attend the course as a refresher every 2-3 years.

Short answer is yes you do!! However the cost is only €15 if you have diver medic done rather than the full €40.
