Emergency action plans

[knotical]

Thats funny, they still have the old number there ... Divers Alert Network : DAN Medical Center : Diving Emergency Hotline

maybe they ought to update their site?

Indeed.

Although they did say:

DAN’s previous hotline numbers will remain in effect for a transitional grace period.

Apparently they're applying the grace period (of unstated duration) to themselves as well.

I didn't do one either. I recently did one for my DM course as it is a required component. Am I correct that it is not a requirement for Rescue and it may be something some instructors decide to add on their own?

An EAP is required for PADI Rescue

d. Prior to Open Water Rescue Scenario One, prepare an emergency assistance plan for the location where the rescue scenarios will be conducted. (See explanation under XI. Open Water Rescue Scenarios, A., 5. Emergency Assistance Plan.)
