DAN Training & Education
Program Objective: Train
divers to respond to dive emergencies in a comprehensive
package.
The great thing about the DEMP course is that while it encompasses four courses in one, it does it without repeating information. The DAN Dive Emergency Provider training incorporates the Oxygen Provider, Advanced Oxygen Provider, AED and Hazardous Marine Life Injuries trainings into one comprehensive course.
Divers often ask me why they should participate in the DEMP training if they are already Rescue divers or Divemasters. It is different than the Primary Care or a Rescue Diver course. The DEMP is the logical next step. It builds on people who already know how to give CPR, find a missing diver, and egress with an unconscious person. The DEMP teaches students how to deal with the diver in need aboard the boat or at shore. We practice administering O2 to conscious and unconscious, breathing and non-breathing victims. After mastering the use of the standard DAN Oxygen kit, we will brake out the bag valve and the AED unit to add to the fun.
