The NBDHMT holds our certification and would be able to tell you of any approved courses in your area. Good luck!

Hey ems, I run a hyperbaric chamber in Dallas, TX.... If you have any questions that you can't find, I would be happy to answer them. Feel free to PM me.

Check with your nearest major hospital. Chambers are used for burn patients, wound care and other things. The one in my area will cover the costs of training if you're an EMT or nurse, as long as you agree to volunteer hours to them.

My husband took the DMT program a couple years ago. They include some basic knowledge of chamber operations, and they went for a "ride" to see what it was like, but the course won't qualify you to operate a chamber.
