Encapsulated and engaged…for those being treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy like Lt. Lyman Woollens to help recover from a serious injury in the Navy’s oldest certified dive chamber, affectionally known as ‘The Whale,’ located on Naval Undersea Warfare Center. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy, strict protocol always calls for someone – from the Navy dive team – to always be present in the chamber and have a Navy undersea medical officer also present. When you put someone under that much pressure, it’s no joke. We rely on the Navy diver community to help us provide the treatment. Their support is incredibly critical,” commented Capt. Juan Dapena, Commander, Submarine Development Squadron 5 Undersea Medical Officer (Official Navy photo by Douglas H Stutz, NHB/NMRTC Bremerton public affairs officer).
