41) The participants can perform rescue operations, in a WTG hub, spinner and inside a blade, using safe and suitable (certified or structural) anchor points, lifting angles, deviation, and edge protection for the rescue equipment (Skills, intermediate level) 42) The participants can perform rescue operations, in a WTG hub, spinner and inside a blade, including the utilisation of an injured person’s personal fall protection equipment without compromising additional fall protection (i.e. when the manually operated lowering/raising rescue system is not certified for person lifting) (Skills, intermediate level) 43) The participants can recognise the benefits of having a coordinator in a rescue team, and the responsibility that comes with it (Knowledge, basic level) 44) The participants can perform clear and precise communication in a stressful rescue operation, both with members of the rescue team as a team coordinator and as a team member (Skills, intermediate level)

The instructor shall:

Highlight specific control measures to avoid injury during training relevant to this specific exercise scenario (according to Lesson 3- Measures to avoid injury during training)

Introduce the specific exercise, including (to the extent needed):

a. appointing a team coordinator for the exercise, and introduce the tasks and responsibilities related to this function

b. different rescue strategies, methods, and techniques in order to optimise the rescue set up

c. highlighting the considerations needed to determine where in the WTG to package the injured person on a rescue stretcher/transfer board

d. guiding and supporting the participants in exploring different rigging options for attaching the

lowering/raising rescue system to the injured person or rescue stretcher/transfer board (i.e. harness front or back attachment point, or attachment point at the foot of the rescue stretcher/transfer board)

e. highlighting the correct injured person configuration to apply (i.e. horizontal, or vertical configuration)

f. highlighting how to organise the rescue team to the specific rescue operation scenario (who does what)

Capture the connected learning objectives/topics for this lesson in the evaluation (i.e. feedback to the participants) on completion of the rescue exercise efforts with a focus on:

a.

positive feedback

b.

improvement proposals and alternative solutions
