It is important that the participants understand how to apply manual handling planning and techniques to their daily work environment

HUB RESCUE EXERCISE 1 & 2 (FROM BLADE)

90 min.

There are several locations on the turbine where occasionally work needs to take place with reduced horizontal and vertical space; such as in a hub, spinner, or blade. The aim of this lesson is to enable the participants to successfully practise injured person rescue operations, in a WTG blade and out of the hub, as a single rescuer.

After having successfully completed this lesson, the participants can:

19) Show interest in the value of, and explain the importance of, end to end rescue strategy planning prior to single rescuer advanced rescue operations and explain the potential consequences in lack of planning (Ability, basic level) 20) Act independently to communicate with (simulated) incident/site commands in own organisation (Ability, intermediate level) 21) Show interest in own limitations and capacity. Explain the coping mechanisms the participants would use and what they would do during this type of situation (Ability, basic level)

22) Show interest in how to reduce manual handling to a minimum (Ability, basic level)

23) Take responsibility for the rescue operation using an injured person’s personal fall protection equipment without compromising additional fall protection (i.e. if the manually operated lowering/raising rescue system is not certified for person lifting) (Ability, intermediate level) 24) Take responsibility for a scene assessment and hazard identification, assessing and determining the rescue strategy (Ability, intermediate level) 25) Take initiative for giving clear communication and guidance to other emergency responders (e.g. vessel crew or ambulance crew), including coordinating the handover of an injured person (Ability, intermediate level)

Note

One participant per exercise. It is recommended that a rescue dummy is used for these exercises
