Who should take this course?
If something goes wrong on a dive, oxygen is one of the most important tools available.
This course is for anyone who wants to be prepared to step in and help, calmly and correctly, when it matters.
The Emergency Oxygen Provider course teaches you how to recognize dive-related injuries and how to respond using emergency oxygen. It’s practical, straightforward training that gives you the confidence to act instead of standing by.
- You dive regularly and want to be a more capable buddy
- You’re working toward Rescue Diver or already there
- You’re around divers, dive boats, or water activities
- You want real-world emergency response skills that actually matter
There are no prerequisites, age restrictions, or water sessions required. Divers, snorkelers, boat crew, and anyone around diving activities can benefit from this training.
What will you learn?
This is a hands-on course focused on real response skills.
- How to recognize dive injuries that benefit from emergency oxygen
- Different types of oxygen delivery systems and when to use them
- Safety considerations when handling and administering oxygen
- Assembling and disassembling oxygen equipment
- Using a non-rebreather mask and demand valve on a breathing diver
- Providing rescue breaths with a pocket mask for a non-breathing diver
This is about being ready, not guessing.

Once we connect, I’ll get you set up with the PADI Emergency Oxygen Provider materials and walk you through what to expect.
What gear will you use?
I’ll provide emergency oxygen units for training, along with the equipment you’ll use during practice.
You’ll work hands-on with real systems so you understand how they function, how to deploy them, and how to use them correctly under pressure.
If you’re interested in owning your own oxygen kit, I can help you choose a setup that makes sense.
