In a diving emergency

Act early. Early recompression gives the best chance of full recovery.

Full signs, symptoms & first aid ›
  1. Call the nearest chamber. Do not wait to see if the symptoms pass.
  2. Keep the diver at rest. Lay the diver flat, on one side. This keeps the airway clear if the diver vomits.
  3. If the diver is unresponsive but breathes normally, use the recovery position. Stay with the diver. Watch the breathing.
  4. Give the diver medical oxygen. Use medical oxygen as soon as it is available. Give the highest concentration you have.
  5. Treat the diver for shock. Keep the diver warm and hydrated.
  6. Do not delay. Early recompression gives the best chance of full recovery.

Worldwide care, worldwide standards

One standard of care, on every coast.

A standardized network

Shared protocols, training, maintenance and staffing, so the quality of care doesn't change with the coastline.

Triage & coordination

With regional assistance companies and dive-medicine hotlines, we coordinate accident assessment, evacuation, on-the-ground logistics, and definitive treatment.

On-site centers

Member clinics at the dive destination, with a doctor trained in diving medicine on site and a recompression chamber on location.

The whole network holds the DAN Recompression Chamber Partner designation and collaborates with Divers Alert Network to support timely access to recompression treatment for injured divers, with streamlined coordination of care available for DAN members.
