Confined Space

All RescueRig confined space Seminars are compliant with OSHA 1910.146, NFPA 1670, and NFPA 1006. Certificates of Compliance will be issued at the successful completion of the Seminar.

 

Too many times we respond to emergency calls without complete knowledge of what it is we are getting into. The call may come in as EMS in nature, a fall injury, an unconscious person, an electrocution, but when we arrive on the scene we tend to default to those actions we do best such as; CPR, and other first aid functions...we feel compelled to take action, caught up in the moment, not seeing the confined space environment in front of us. It is essential that we recognize a confined space emergency when we're not expecting one. We must take the blinders off and see the big picture!
