The instructor shall:
Explain the consequences of performing a rescue operation as a single rescuer, as compared to a team operation, as elaborated below Explain the importance of end to end rescue strategy planning and how to organise the entire setup and operation i.e. what to do, when and how
Explain that PPE lanyards available are limited to two of each type (fall restraint and fall arrest)
Explain what equipment to rig /utilise /lay out, where, to achieve a correct setup the first time
Explain how to evaluate where you should be located and how you can move from one side of the IP to the other (if relevant), e.g. by removing hatch between hub and nacelle Explain how to assess and determine evacuation strategy during a rescue operation, ensuring a clear and preferred evacuation route and the limitations related to the singular rescue
The participants shall:
Practise how to establish means of escape with an end-to-end rescue strategy
Practise how to establish means of communication with incident/site command in own organisation
Explain why a single person rescue operation could take more time than a team rescue operation and the effect this could have on the medical condition of the IP. Describe the limitations on own capacity, e.g. due to mental stress or physical stress like exhaustion/fatigue and dehydration and how to cope with this. This includes acknowledging when an individual is not able to successfully complete the rescue operation, and what to do in this situation
