Getting Out Of A Tight Space: Confined Space Rescue Training

February 4, 2016

Escambia County Fire Rescue first responders learned about getting out of a tight spot — a really tight spot –  during training held at Ascend Performance Materials in Cantonment.

Members of Escambia County Fire Rescue’s Special Operations team from Brent’s Station 3 and “Ladder 12″ from the Osceola Fire Station worked their way through the training, which included successfully getting into, and out of, a pipe that was barely shoulder-width.  The training included setting up the necessary rope and rigging to enter the confined space, with am emphasis on safety.
