About the Demonstration
Confined Space Rescue Demonstration: Operations is the second in our Confined Space Rescue Series. This demonstration will provide you with the theory to operate at the NFPA confined space rescue operations level. As rescue is a skill-based event this theory course needs to be matched with skill-based follow up training prior to you trying this on your own.
What You'll Learn
Inside this demonstration, the following learning objectives will be covered:
-
The meaning and importance of A.T.L.A.S.T.
-
Tactical considerations every confined space rescuer must know
-
How to rig hauling and lowering systems
-
Applying and using Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA)
-
Performing spinal packaging inside of a space
-
Enter and operate rescue systems for vertical and horizontal confined spaces
-
How to assemble and use tripods and portable anchors
-
Conduct monitoring of the environment and confirm bump/calibration of equipment
