To successfully complete this lesson of the module, course participants must be able to:

1) Explain how to assess and determine evacuation strategy during a rescue operation, attending to a clear and preferred evacuation route for the injured person outside or inside the tower 2) Explain how to mitigate against interfering winds bringing down an injured person onto the transition piece during an outside evacuation by means of a passive rescue device setup, with tagline (to control the final descent of the injured person onto the transition piece) 3) Demonstrate how to prepare the injured person for safe transportation (i.e. fit head support, harness and other PPE, and package him on a rescue stretcher or transfer board)
