A friend of mine is due to go to the Maldives in 10 days and has been doing an OW course in the UK. She has gone deaf in one ear and has been diagnosed with a bleed/bruise in her middle ear - No diving for 6 weeks! I asked what her training consisted of. She did her confined water dives in a 5 Metre diving pool with no water shallow enough to stand up in, taken to the bottom even though she was having trouble equalising.

1. This is a breach of standards, that is not in question.
2. Do I tell her to speak to PADI or do I call PADI. I know I should as it is part of my agreement with PADI - ( I am a IDC Staff Instructor)
3. Do I put her onto the HSE as well.

Interested in comments from PADI Instructors..........
