Safety Tips
During a confined space rescue, it is important to monitor the health and well-being of those entering and exiting. Our top 3 safety tips should be reviewed regularly to optimise your success.
Be ready to rescue.
Always assume that a confined space can turn unsafe at a moment’s notice. Ensuring your team has an exit/rescue strategy at all points can reduce the chance of an injury.
Isolate the confined space.
Eliminate the chance of additional factors affecting the area by isolating the confined space. Do not hesitate to reach out for assistance from a third party so your team can focus on the rescue.
Keep contact at all times.
During entry, discovery, and exit, always maintain contact with the entire team. All team members should be kep appraised of the situation and their responsibilities.
