Emergency Oxygen Provider

First aid with emergency oxygen is useful or necessary as a treatment for
many injuries, diseases and intoxications that interfere with oxygen
reaching the blood and tissues. For recreational scuba divers, emergency
oxygen is the primary first aid given to individuals suffering from a near
drowning or decompression illness (lung over expansion injury or
decompression sickness). Providing emergency oxygen has become the standard
practice for treating injured scuba divers since it provides oxygen to
starved tissues and aids in bubble reduction. Having emergency oxygen
available immediately at a dive location is especially important to divers
suffering from these maladies. Along with availability of oxygen at a dive
site, first aid responders must know how to provide oxygen in an emergency.
The Emergency Oxygen Provider
Course looks at topics such as:
*Use of Emergency Oxygen
*Diving Injuries
*Emergency Oxygen Equipment
*Safety Considerations when using oxygen
*Maintaining Emergency Oxygen Equipment
Plus, there is hands on use of
the equipment as part of the skills portion of the course.
