- The Second of our latest Confined Space search and rescue videos. In this, our instructors show you a confined space search and rescue, wearing full BA, where dangerous gasses are simulated and the casualty is then lifted out onto a stretcher and lowered safely to the ground for medical attention.
Arco Professional Safety Services offer a number of confined space training courses to suit all requirements including City & Guilds 6150 courses.

thank you
Great vid
Decent training video. I didn't see anything that stood out as wrong or bad practice. My big question is, once you've found the victim, why not kill the alarm? You've made contact, and you have at least a tag line on yourself, and a radio to notify that you've found the victim. Silencing the alarm would make the whole rest of that operation possibly go smoother and just a little less stressful, and make communication easier with SCBA in use. Confined spaces are aggravating enough without having to listen to that noise.
This is a horrible job and is a perfect example of what NOT to do. First, the attendant has no PPE - just because the hazard (gas in this case) is in tIhe confined space, doesn't mean it can't come out of the hole. Second, the attendant was improperly tied off. Front and side D-rings are used for positioning, not fall protection. Had he fallen in the hole he would have been severely injured. Third, the rescuers spent way too long in the hole assessing the patient. Patient assessment does not begin until you remove them from the hazardous environment. Forth, at no point did the rescuers attempt to put oxygen on the patient. Fifth, the rescuers were not familiar with the equipment and took way to long to load the patient. Sixth, did not remove his helmet. There are no C-spine issues, take the helmet off. Created a choke hazard by leaving it on. Seven, they left the patient hang for to long. Eight, where was the entry permit? Nine, where were the other responders. Even if this was an industrial team, outside agency should have been called and should have already been on-site about the time they pull him out.
This was a very poorly trained crew led by a clearly incompetent instructor. Definitely not professional. I hope people are not relying on them for their protection.
1st The attendant has no RPE!!! because he is the instructor and needs to communicate with his delegates. 2nd I suggest you get some harness training as the front D ring on an EN 361 harness is a fall arrest point. 3rd This is a training exercise where the delegates carry out a task which is followed by a de-brief and discussion on how things could be improved, it forms a vital part of training. Maybe you should get some. 4th The delegates are being trained in casualty recovery they are at this point not competent in oxygen therapy. 5th see point 3. 6th This is a training exercise and company policy states that during all training at height head protection must be worn. 7th see point 3. 8th Entry permits an BACO are run as part of training and all aspects come together as training progresses before a final assessment. 9th This was a training exercise for 2 delegates i am not sure an outside agency would appreciate the call as they tend to be rather busy dealing with real emergencies.
If you would like to meet the incompetent instructor to discuss this further and view our training facilities or maybe book some harness training for yourself please contact the training department who will be more than happy to help.

andrew dinn well said, say it like it is
I've been a professional confined space rescue instructor for over 30 years, we can always improve but this was ok
Hey, call me I f you need extra help 😉
One thing, the Scott Sigma, low cost yes, but because of the protruding 1st stage reducer, a liability
