Wind Turbine Rescue Get a quote on this class This two-day course teaches students how to perform organized, systematic rescues from wind turbines. These techniques are also applicable to other types of towers including radio, radar, microwave, electrical, transmission, water, and lighting structures.  Participants learn the procedures and systems required for stabilizing and lowering patients and have ample opportunity to use their skills and knowledge in simulated rescue situations. Because each workplace has its own unique hazards, the scenarios, enactments, and equipment are tailored to each industrial site.   Prerequisites Before taking this class, students must have completed fall protection and qualified climber training. They should also have current First Aid and CPR certifications.    COURSE OUTLINE Orientation Basic Fall Protection Rescue Fundamentals  Rescue Hazards Size-up Scene Safety Rescue Equipment Carabiners, Pulleys, Ascenders, Descenders Specialty Equipment Software—Rope and Webbing Inspection and Care Knots and Hitches Rescue Systems Friction Lowering Systems Mechanical Advantage Systems Rescue Procedures  Pre-Planning Rescue Methods and Decision Factors Practice Rescues
