Divers Alert Network (DAN), a non-profit organization, exists to provide expert information and advice consistent with the current medical literature for the benefit of the diving public.
DAN´s historical and primary function is to provide emergency medical advice and assistance for underwater diving accidents, to work to prevent accidents, and to promote diving safety.
DAN promotes and supports underwater diving research and education, particularly relating to the improvement of diving safety, first aid, and medical treatment.
DAN strives to provide accurate, up-to-date, and unbiased information on issues of common concern to the diving public and to advocate for diver´s concerns, primarily, but not exclusively for diving safety.
