Safety training
GWO Advanced Rescue Training Standard / V4 2023-05-02
c. participants' reflections on what specific elements in their own WTG environment/practice differ from the training scenario environment (to visualise and enhance learning transfer)
d.
participants’ risk mitigation during the exercise
e. participants’ manual handling risk mitigation and application of further control measures
Stress the generic approach to teaching the use of rescue equipment in this lesson focusing on the similarities and differences in design, functionality and operation between different products and associated accessories Explain the potential task placed upon the participants in their own organisations on completion requiring them to familiarise themselves with other rescue equipment products Facilitate a group discussion or Q&A activity on rescue strategies and different rigging options of attaching the lowering/raising rescue system to the injured person or rescue stretcher/transfer board
The participants shall:
Explain how to identify and control the specific hazards/risks in the WTG during the rescue operation, covering the following:
a. hazardous energies (mechanical, electrical, magnetic, pressurised systems) - i.e. LOTO
b.
enclosed space areas
c.
poor lighting conditions
d.
dropped objects
e.
poor manual handling
f. temperature/working conditions (dehydration, heat stroke, exhaustion)
g. injured person suspension trauma (repetition from GWO WAH put into an advanced rescue context)
h.
slips and trips
Practise how to assess and determine the optimum rescue strategy (relevant rescue method, technique, certified equipment, and required personnel) for a rescue scenario in a WTG blade Practise how to prepare the injured person for safe transportation (i.e. apply rescue head support, fit harness and other PPE, and package them on a rescue stretcher or transfer board) Practise how to rig and operate the lowering/raising rescue system in a proper manner aiming to achieve a safe and efficient rigging setup, including the utilisation of an injured person’s personal fall protection equipment without compromising additional fall protection if the lowering / raising rescue system is not approved for person lifting
