Man vs. Machinery
PPE Required: Lightweight rescue gear or jumpsuit, helmet, gloves, safety toe boots, and eye protection.
Man vs. machinery incidents occur across the country. They may involve a person stuck in some sort of industrial machinery or be as routine as a ring stuck on a victim's finger. Is your department prepared to handle these types of incidents? This program will introduce students to tools and methods that have been proven to be effective in rescuing victims. Students will participate in multiple scenarios including ring removals, swing incidents, fence impalements, body parts caught in a meat grinder, person pinned under a vehicle, and industrial type accidents.
