When I go diving I like to know a bit about the area, the people in it and how to contact them if things go wrong. Diving is an extreme sport but with the right training, preparation and a bit of common sense the risk can be minimized significantly. I have collected information along the way that that may be of use to others. I don't guarantee it is 100% accurate so do your own homework as well. If you find something is incorrect please post a comment at the bottom of the page that is incorrect. These guidelines are intended to provide recommendations for accessing emergency medical resources and providing on-scene treatment to diving emergencies. Divers and dive operators are responsible for ensuring that necessary emergency equipment, including oxygen, and trained personnel, are available. These guidelines assume that all advanced life support skills, such as defibrillation, intubation, IVs, and the administration of medications are performed by properly credentialled and authorized personnel. Further, the guidelines assume that on-scene personnel are able to establish communications with both the Coast Guard or Fire Department/EMS, and the Divers Alert Network | Stop Think Breath Act |
