Important !
Le questionnaire médical DAN (Divers Alert Network) permet de déterminer si une consultation médicale est nécessaire avant de pratiquer la plongée. Il est obligatoire de le remplir, le signer et suivre ses instructions avant un cours de plongée ; ce document est également exigé par les assurances. Il contribue avant tout à préserver votre sécurité.
Veuillez lire attentivement le questionnaire avant de vous inscrire à un cours, s’il vous plaît.
Si vous avez répondu “oui” à l’une des questions, n’hésitez pas à nous contacter pour plus d’informations. Cela ne signifie pas nécessairement que vous n’êtes pas apte à pratiquer la plongée, mais simplement que vous devrez consulter un médecin pour confirmer votre aptitude.
