Hi Tayla
Just to clarify - the Centre Managers and staff are all fully trained in the use of HBOT and are, more often than not, retired nursing staff, medical professionals or the like
There are very strict guidelines and anyone undergoing treatment is asked to seek advice from their GP before they start
Hope this reassures you but I'll try and post more about it later, once I have spoken to them at length

Thanks for that Andrea,
When you said there were no onsite nurses I was wondering who was looking after the patient care during the dives.
It has been said on this site by another member that in America HBOT can be run by someone who "flips burgers" so I was wondering just how much regulation there is of HBOT in the UK
I wonder if you think I am making a mountain out of a molehill here but as a patient of months of HBOT there was much that I saw and experienced that made me realise the importance of having well trained HBOT staff available at all times.
We often see on TV the sight of a rather healthy looking person climbing into a mono chamber with a grin on their face as they watch TV as they try to hurry up the healing of a muscle strain so they may have an early return to their elite sport when the reality is that in most HBOT chambers around the world they are filled with sometimes critically ill patients who need the same type of intensive or critical care as they would in a normal ward.
I realise that this is probably not the case at this unit you are hoping to go to and I just hope that it will be just what Ali needs
Love Tayla
