Prepare for these special hazards by learning how to organize and manage safe swiftwater rescue operations. This physically demanding program is designed to improve your personal readiness to respond to swiftwater emergency situations. In the second half of class\, you will build on your basic swiftwater rescue skills to run safe and successful operations. Participants in this program should be prepared for multiple challenging in-water scenarios\, so students should have excellent swimming skills. \n\n\n\nMAIN TOPICS\n\nHydrology/Dynamics of Moving Water\nPlanning Swiftwater Operations\nSite Survey\nHazard Identification\nPersonal Protective Equipment\nSurvival Float & Swim Techniques\nMechanical Rigging Systems\nLocating Hidden Obstructions\nUse of Inflatable Boats\nLow-head Dams\nSwiftwater Search Techniques\nOperational Planning\nAdvanced Ropes\, Knots\, and Rigging\nSwimming Exercises\nSwiftwater Rescue Board Exercises\nAdvanced River Rescue Scenarios\nTriage Exercises\nWater-Bound Victim Extrication\n\nPREREQUISITES\n\nAt least 18 years of age\nMember of a Public Safety Agency\nPhysically fit (13 MET or greater recommended)\n\nBRING TO CLASS\nAll students will need: \n\nU.S. Coast Guard approved Personal Flotation Device (PFD)\nA knife\nA whistle\nAdequate clothing for working outside\nPen and paper for taking notes and sketching\n\n\n\n\n\nStudents participating in-water must provide their own equipment including: swiftwater appropriate exposure suit\, fins\, boogie board\, gloves\, and footwear.

SUMMARY:Rapid Intervention Techniques Trainer
DESCRIPTION:OBJECTIVE\nSuccessful completion of the Rapid Intervention Techniques Trainer program provides the skills required to improve divers’ ability to assess and respond to a PSD in distress – whether submerged or at the surface – and from a vessel or the shore. Instructors will work with RIT specific equipment such as contingency air cylinders and rapid diver systems during in-class scenarios. \nPREREQUISITES\n\nMember of a Public Safety Agency\nAt least 21 years old\nRSTC Medical Statement\nCurrent First Aid\, EMT or Paramedic certification\nCurrent CPR certification\n\nBRING TO CLASS\n\nUS Coast Guard approved PFD with knife and whistle\nAdequate clothing and protection from the environment\nPen and paper for note- taking and sketching.\n\nDiving students must provide their own equipment: Wetsuit or dry suit\, scuba regulator: recently serviced + environmentally\nprotected with alternate air source (i.e.: octopus)\, timing device\, depth + submersible pressure gauge\, BC with oral/power inflator\,\n4 tanks with current Hydro + VIP\, mask\, snorkel\, fins\, weight belt + 2 cutting tools (knife\, wire cutters\, or trauma shears).

SUMMARY:Light Salvage & Recovery
DESCRIPTION:OBJECTIVE\nThe focus of the program will be conducting salvage operations as they apply to underwater crime scenes and investigations. The techniques taught in this program can be applied to the salvage or recovery of boats\, automobiles and aircraft. By teaching your dive members to complete safe salvage operations\, you can offer an environmentally conscious service to your community. Students should be prepared to make several lifts using various techniques. \nPREREQUISITES\n\nMember of a Public Safety Agency\nAt least 18 years old\nRSTC Medical Statement\nCurrent First Aid\, EMT or Paramedic certification\nCurrent CPR certification\n\nBRING TO CLASS\n\nUS Coast Guard approved PFD with knife and whistle\nAdequate clothing and protection from the environment\nPen and paper for note- taking and sketching.\n\nDiving students must provide their own equipment: Wetsuit or dry suit\, scuba regulator: recently serviced + environmentally\nprotected with alternate air source (i.e.: octopus)\, timing device\, depth + submersible pressure gauge\, BC with oral/power inflator\,\n4 tanks with current Hydro + VIP\, mask\, snorkel\, fins\, weight belt + 2 cutting tools (knife\, wire cutters\, or trauma shears).

SUMMARY:Critical Skills Diver
DESCRIPTION:OBJECTIVE\nCritical Skills Diver training prepares Public Safety Divers (PSDs) to use repetition in training as a means to improve in water confidence and competence. PSDs are introduced to the concepts of muscle memory\, stress survival responses\, and crisis rehearsal for self-rescue. Proper response to key underwater emergencies are examined and practiced. Student skill level evolves through repetition of familiar and unfamiliar challenges. Simply\, this course introduces the knowledge and skills that help PSDs develop the ability to prevent and / or survive a diving emergency. \nPREREQUISITES\n\nMember of a Public Safety Agency\nAt least 18 years old\nRSTC Medical Statement\nCurrent First Aid\, EMT or Paramedic certification\nCurrent CPR certification\n\nBRING TO CLASS\n\nUS Coast Guard approved PFD with knife and whistle\nAdequate clothing and protection from the environment\nPen and paper for note- taking and sketching.\n\nDiving students must provide their own equipment: Wetsuit or dry suit\, scuba regulator: recently serviced + environmentally protected with alternate air source (i.e.: octopus)\, timing device\, depth + submersible pressure gauge\, BC with oral/power inflator\, 4 tanks with current Hydro + VIP\, mask\, snorkel\, fins\, weight belt + 2 cutting tools (knife\, wire cutters\, or trauma shears).
