Recompression chambers across Mexico
Making Mexico a safer place to dive since 1987.
SSS-standard recompression facilities operate on both Mexican coasts. Bilingual teams trained in diving medicine staff them. The physicians hold specialist education in hyperbaric therapy, and are certified divers. Several sites offer more than recompression: emergency care, hospitalization, X-ray, and treatment for marine-life injuries and dive-related trauma.
Medical & response capability
Staffed to a standard, not a roster.
SSS staffs every location to a common standard, not a common roster. The roles below describe capability, not people. Coverage, certification and response readiness stay the same across the network, even where names and schedules change locally.
Hyperbaric Medicine Physician
A physician is on call for chamber treatment decisions. At larger sites, these physicians are board certified and also trained in other emergency medicine specialties.
Dive Medical Officer
Assesses dive injuries on arrival and selects the treatment table, including cases that need mixed-gas COMEX tables.
Diver Medical Technician
First response and neurological assessment for decompression illness, working the network's double-lock multiplace chambers.
Chamber Operator
Runs pressurization and treatment tables, and supports technician and physician transfer without interrupting an active treatment.
Emergency Medical Technician
First-response and stabilization coverage, coordinated with each site's partner hospital.
Patient Tender
Accompanies every patient inside the chamber for the whole treatment.
Operations & Training Lead
Certified as an EMT and as a dive-safety instructor, and coordinates readiness with the region's affiliated dive operators.
