Dive Emergency Preparedness

---

Prepared for the worst?

​

Facility dive emergency response plans are often overlooked due to the low incidence of dive incidents in the zoo and aquarium injury.  The potential for an accident is always there and should be a focus of every organization's  diving risk management and safety plan.  The key to successful rescues is proper training and frequent practice.

 BIODIVE can analyze, train and develop an existing emergency response plan or build one from the ground up using the RESCUE-X  System developed specifically for zoos and aquariums.  

​

The RESCUE-X System is developed by current Firefighter/ Paramedics that were DSO's and understand the challenges of diving in zoos and aquariums.  Tight spaces, staff & management buy in, training time, and training expense are issues BIODIVE can help you overcome to ensure a safe and defensible emergency response plan should the worst happen during an occupational dive operation.
