As oppose to product specific training, a generic approach to teaching safety equipment focuses on the similarities and differences in design, functionality and operation between different equipment products. The generic approach is achieved by teaching a variety of rescue equipment products within each rescue equipment category (e.g. rescue stretchers), enabling the course participant to conduct pre-use inspection and to use other rescue equipment products compared to those taught during this Module – based on the manufacturer’s user manual but without additional formal training. Consequently, a potential task is placed upon the course participant on course completion, requiring him to familiarize himself with other rescue equipment products in his own organization e.g. prior to site or work, based on the manufacturer’s manual.

Generic principle

Rescue head support

A device or technique which will support the head of an injured person during a rescue operation (a cervical collar falls into this description)
