SAFETY, EMERGENCY AND RESCUE IN CONFINED SPACES – REFRESHER

The course provides the personnel with instructions on right procedures concering entry and emergency in confined spaces and environments suspected of being polluted.

The program includes a test before starting the refresher course(practice). The test is made up of 20 questions with multiple choice to verify the knowledge on confined spaces

Practical session

• Helmet with chinstraps use
• Harness use
• Use of airway protective devices(demonstration)
• Use of self-contained breathing apparatus (smoke room)
• Use of tripod and fall protection devices (self-rescue)
• (Emergency Escape Breathing Apparatus EEBA)
• Multi-gas detection system
• Installation: tripod and connected equipment (retractable fall arrester turning into a recuperator, winch, watchman retractable fall arrester…)

• Cascade Airline Breathing Apparatus CABA
• Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus SCBA
• CABA emergency system
• Emergency rescue simulation (extrication) through lifting devices and procedures

After the theoretical and practical session, the initial test will be repeated in order to check knowledge and skills acquired during the course
