Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving
Injuries represents entry-level
training to educate the general diving (and
qualified non-diving) public to better recognise
possible dive-related injuries and to provide
emergency oxygen first aid while activating
the local emergency medical services (EMS)
and / or arranging for evacuation to the
nearest available medical facility.
The DAN Advanced Oxygen First Aid
for Scuba Diving Injuries Course
is a Training Program for those individuals
who have successfully completed the DAN
Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving Injuries
course. It is designed to train DAN Oxygen
Providers to use a positive pressure valve
(as the MTV100) and/or a bag-valve-mask
(BVM); depending on local legal laws and
regulations.
A Medical Oxygen Rebreather (MO2R)
is designed to provide high concentrations
of emergency oxygen for up to eight hours,
using a small oxygen cylinder. It will benefit
a responsive and breathing injured diver
where there is a substantial distance to
the nearest medical facility or delay to
the next level of response. During the DAN
MO2R course, DAN Oxygen Providers will learn
when it is appropriate to deploy the Medical
Oxygen Rebreather, how to set up the system
and how to use it. Thanks to a Medical Oxygen
Rebreather and divers trained in the use
of such systems, diving in remote locations
will be safer than ever.
Oxygen First Aid for Aquatic Emergencies
represents training designed to educate
the public to recognise possible aquatic
related injuries and to provide emergency
oxygen first aid while activating the local
emergency medical services (EMS) and / or
arranging for evacuation to the nearest
medical facility.
Injuries represents entry-level
training designed to educate the
general diving (and qualified non-diving)
public to identify hazardous marine life,
to recognise possible injuries caused by
hazardous marine life, to provide first
aid for hazardous marine life injuries and
to avoid hazardous marine life injuries.
The DAN Basic Life Support (BLS)
course will not only train divers
and non-divers to resuscitate an injured
person with a circulatory arrest, but can
also prevent a person from getting in that
condition. External bleeding, choking and
shock can lead to severe circulatory and
respiratory problems. The DAN BLS course
will prepare you to react in the correct
way, when accidents happen.
DAN Automated External Defibrillator
course (AED) for Scuba Diving represents
entry level training designed to educate
the general diving (and qualified non-diving)
public to better recognise the warning signs
of Sudden Cardiac Arrest and administer
first aid using Basic Life Support techniques
and an Automated External Defibrillator
while activating the local emergency medical
services, (EMS) and / or arranging for evacuation
to the nearest appropriate medical facility.
DAN Europe’s Comprehensive
Training packages
DAN offers several
dive-specific first aid training programs.
Because these courses are often taught independently,
there is repetitive information and skills.
the Diving Emergency Management Provider
and the Diving First Responder Course allows
DAN Instructors to offer an integrated course
that allows divers to learn the information
and skills in DAN Training Programs, at
a significant savings of time, but without
sacrificing any skills.
While the Diving Emergency
Management Provider course combines the
Oxygen, AED and HMLI course, the DAN Diving
First Responder course also includes the
skills and knowledge from the Advanced Oxygen
Provider course.
Active Diving Instructors with an active
CPR certificate can participate in a DAN
IQC to get certified as DAN Instructor for
one or more of the above mentioned courses.
After the IQC they will be able to offer
the DAN courses to their own students.
