Diver First Aid Pack
The Diver First Aid Pack is a practical, three-tier approach to medical preparedness for recreational scuba diving, based on DAN-style guidance and adapted for how dives actually happen, from local shore dives to remote travel. The goal is not to turn divers into medics. It is to ensure the right tools are available, staged correctly, and usable when they are needed. Use the tiers individually or as a complete system.

Who this pack is for
This pack is built for certified recreational divers who want a realistic medical plan that matches the way dives actually run. It is especially useful for shore divers, trip leaders, and anyone who wants more than a basic personal kit without drifting into unrealistic medical complexity.
- Shore divers and small-group dive days
- Resort and liveaboard trips where you want personal capability
- Divers who want a staged kit (bag, vehicle, boat)
- Divers who want clearer oxygen escalation decisions
The problem
Most dive-day medical issues are small and annoying: cuts, blisters, stings, headaches, nausea, or ear and eye irritation. Those problems waste time and can end a dive day early. Less often, the problem is serious: suspected decompression illness, near drowning, unexplained neurological symptoms, or a diver who stops breathing. You cannot predict which one you will see. You can control whether you have a staged plan, the right tools, and a clear decision path for escalation and oxygen use.
What is included
4 pages of structured checklists and decision tools designed to be printed, saved to a phone, or staged with your kit. Each page stands alone.
- Tier 1 – Personal First Aid Kit Checklist
- Tier 2 – Trauma & Topside Medical Kit Checklist
- Tier 3 – Emergency O2 & Life Support Overview
- Emergency Oxygen Decision Tree

How this pack is used
This pack works best when it is staged and reused. Most divers will not carry everything on every dive. The point is knowing what lives where and when to escalate.
- Before the trip to build a travel-ready personal kit and adjust for destination needs
- Before a shore dive to stage the trauma kit where it can actually be accessed quickly
- During dive planning to confirm oxygen availability and who can deploy it
- During an incident to use the oxygen decision tree to act early and coordinate evacuation
