The remote nature of dive accidents, whether a
few hours from shore or days from civilization,
frequently requires more advanced levels of care
than are offered by traditional or entry-level CPR
programs. DAN Instructors and Instructor Trainers
will now be able to offer a healthcare provider-level basic life support program for
their student and divers.
Called Basic Life Support for Dive Professionals (BLSPRO), this program is ideal
for dive professionals and divers interested in understanding professional-level
resuscitation techniques. This program is designed to be applicable to the diving
market, including scenes and scenarios from dive situations, as well as the non-
diving/healthcare market.
Coupled with DAN’s existing Training Programs and the new Advanced Oxygen
First Aid program, DAN Instructors and Instructor Trainers will now be able to
offer a complete diving emergency program.
This program also addresses basic life support skills for adults, children and
infants.
Skills learned in this program that set it apart from lay-provider level CPR courses
include:
two-person CPR;
ventilation using a bag valve mask;
finger sweep;
suctioning;
cricoid pressure; and
the technique for caring for an unconscious choking victim.
Recommended Minimum Hours of Training
Knowledge and skills development hours = 8
Course Cost:
$65.00 per person includes textbook
