Confined Space/High Angle Technical Rescue Training Seminar
This seminar is an intensive ~30 hour training course focusing on industrial technical rescue operations where emergency response personnel may be faced with confined space and high angle rescue challenges. Attendees will be introduced to the confined space/high angle technical rescue environment and provided detailed hands-on training. Training topics will include an overview of skills and terminology commonly used during rescue operations; technical rescue equipment familiarization; hazard and risk assessment relative to rescue operations involving confined spaces and high angles; preplanning site-specific rescue operations; an overview of confined space entry procedures; personal protective equipment for rescuers; atmospheric monitoring techniques; patient packaging techniques; constructing anchor systems; constructing mechanical advantage systems commonly used in the rescue environment; descending a fixed rope; removing entrants from confined spaces using retrieval equipment under emergency conditions; and much more.
