Scuba Diving Medical Statement
Scuba Diving Medical Statement
There is often some confusion about the scuba diving medical statement required to participate in scuba diving activities.
- If you are a certified scuba diver and not participating in a course, this statement is not required. (You did it when you got certified).
- For everyone else the form is required. This does include first time divers that are not pursuing a certification course.
- The medical statement has a bunch of questions about your health. If you can answer them all NO, then you are done when you sign the form. No physicians signature required.
- If you have a YES answer on the form you will be required to have a physicians signature on that form BEFORE you can get wet – be it pool or ocean.
- It is worth noting that one of the questions is “Have you been diagnosed with COVID-19?” A YES means that you will need a physician’s signature.
- We do not provide refunds for people who show up, fill out the form with a YES, and then cannot dive that day. So, plan ahead.
