Suggestion DAN phone numbers

[Web Monkey]

Every now and then someone posts a message in Dr. Deco or Diving Medicine relating the story of some incident and symptoms and asking if they have DCS.

In each case the answer is always "If you think you might be injured, you need to be evaluated by a doctor immediatly."

What do you think about posting some sort of banner or message at the top of both forums to this effect, and maybe listing phone numbers for DAN, and similar orginazations (if any) serving other parts of the world?

That's a fantastic idea and something I'm sure we can implement right away!

An excellent idea indeed. With the way many of us skip the stickies, perhaps an attention getting leader, like Do you think that you may be injured?

Neither ScubaBoard.Com's staff nor its members are able to provide accurate medical diagnosis over the internet. If you think you might be injured or have suffered any symptoms of DCS, you need to be evaluated by a doctor immediately. Please seek medical attention or call the Diver Alert Network at 1-800-446-2671.

Why not add the international DAN phone numbers?
