All BMM Facilities conform to the SSS Network
Operating Standards
Introduction
BMM is
proud to be part of the Sub-aquatic Safety Services (SSS) international recompression chamber network based in Texas (USA).
The network currently links eleven chambers worldwide. Standards and procedures, maintenance, upgrades, training and staffing levels are all governed by SSS policy.
By being party of the SSS Network you are assured that our
facilities in Mexico are of the highest standard.
To date the network of chambers has treated slightly over 2000 recreational divers that would otherwise have been untreated, or had their treatment delayed until after they were air evacuated, (after substantial delays and at a huge expense).
In Mexico real money has been invested into your chambers and as such, our facilites are world class.
We have created a saftey net across Mexico and continue to improve it. In effect our technical, medical & language expertise is your
best avenue to receiveing the best recompresion medical coverage available in
Mexico.
