Tower Rescue Rope Operations
This is a rope rescue course providing technical rescue personnel hands-on experience operating on a communications tower structure. Students will learn proper techniques for climbing tower structures, RF monitoring, rescue rigging, and victim packaging techniques. Students will be trained to National Fire Protection Association 2500 and 1006 Tower Rescue Awareness level. The techniques learned in class also relate to other "tower" type structures such as water towers, wind turbines, cranes, smokestacks, and transmission towers. Students will be awarded a Tower Rescue Awareness (8-hr) certification at the completion of the course.
