Designed for dive professionals (or divers) interested in a comprehensive program of first aid care for dive emergencies, the DAN Diving Emergency Management Provider program integrates four DAN classes into a single eight hour course:

* Automated External Defibrillators (AED's) for Scuba Diving
* Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving Injuries
* Advanced Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving Injuries
* First Aid for Hazardous Marine Life Injuries
I'll be teaching the course at Haigh Quarry over two days, June 28 & 29. Come spend your morning diving and your afternoon learning how to handle complex diving emergencies.

The class is sponsored by the Ralph Erickson Educational Foundation and all profits will help their mission to support the education and training of future dive professionals. For those of you who aren't familiar with the name, Ralph Erickson was one of the founders of PADI and a long-time aquatics coach and educator at Loyola University.

For details about the course or to enroll, visit the 25 Fathoms website or PM me through this board.
