The Confined Space Rescue Technician Level course equips emergency responders with advanced skills to execute complex rescues in confined spaces with unique hazards. Students will learn to initiate comprehensive searches beyond visible areas, apply supplied-air respirators, and perform critical patient immobilization. Emphasis is placed on pre-planning, atmosphere monitoring, and real-time communication with command. Participants will also train to assess and mitigate atmospheric hazards, manage rescue air supplies, and apply safe egress techniques in confined spaces with restricted access. This course aligns with NFPA standards, preparing responders to handle high-risk rescues while minimizing risks to rescuers and victims.
