What happens when a routine job suddenly turns into a rescue?
Yesterday, our team partnered with the City of Minot Water Distribution Department to work through several confined space rescue scenarios.
These types of rescues aren’t an everyday occurrence for our crews, but Water Department staff regularly work in environments where confined space hazards are a reality. That made this a great opportunity for both departments to learn from each other and train together.
We talked through different scenarios, then put the tools, resources and skills to work in hands-on exercises designed to prepare us for the unexpected.
The best time to figure out how we’ll work together during an emergency is before the emergency happens.
A valuable day of training, teamwork, and learning for both departments.
