The Diver's Alert Network Oxygen Management Plan

The Diver's Alert Network (DAN) Oxygen Management Plan provides guidelines for safely handling oxygen in diving situations. It emphasizes using proper equipment, storing oxygen in secure, well-ventilated areas, and avoiding sources of ignition. The plan also highlights training on recognizing oxygen hazards, maintaining equipment regularly, and ensuring quick access to emergency oxygen supplies. Following these protocols reduces risks of fire, explosion, and oxygen toxicity, ensuring diver safety both during and after dives. Overall, DAN’s plan promotes responsible oxygen use to protect divers and their supporting personnel.
