Confined Space Entry and Emergency Rescue

Overview: The Confined Space Entry and Emergency Rescue course is designed to train participants in identifying and managing the hazards associated with confined spaces, adhering to OSHA regulations, and effectively responding to emergency situations. Through a combination of comprehensive lectures, practical exercises, and scenario-based learning, participants will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to safely enter confined spaces, perform effectively in their designated roles, and respond to emergencies should they arise.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:

  1. Understand the definition and types of confined spaces and associated hazards.
  2. Explain OSHA regulations related to confined spaces (29 CFR 1910.146).
  3. Identify the roles and responsibilities of entrants, attendants, and supervisors in confined space operations.
  4. Conduct hazard identification and risk assessment techniques specific to confined spaces.
  5. Utilize appropriate atmospheric testing and monitoring procedures.
  6. Implement isolation methods and ventilation techniques effectively.
  7. Operate personal protective equipment (PPE) and communicate effectively in confined space scenarios.
  8. Develop and implement emergency rescue plans and procedures.
  9. Demonstrate basic life support (BLS) skills and implement rescue techniques during practical scenarios.
