GWO Advanced Rescue Training

GWO Advanced Rescue Training elevates rescuer self-reliance and enables successful transport of a colleague who cannot self-evacuate, to an assembly point until professional emergency responders arrive.

The modules teach entry-type casualty rescue operations in a turbine using industry standard rescue equipment, rescue methods and techniques, exceeding those of GWO Working at heights. The course consists of two main modules and a single rescuer version of each:

• Hub, Spinner and Inside Blade Rescue (HSIBR)
• Nacelle, Tower and Basement Rescue (NTBR)
• Single Rescuer: Hub, Spinner and Inside Blade Rescue (SR:HSIBR)
• Single Rescuer: Nacelle, Tower and Basement Rescue (SR:NTBR)

Taskmasters provide Full and Refresh training for all of the ART modules and the training can be completed over a 3 day period on a combined course or individually at days to suit.
