[stevelucocq]

Yeah as above take yourtime and watch for any excess slack in the climbing system..goodluck steve

remember to keep in contact with the assessor. shout below before the branch is cut not as it thumps to the floor. i nearly failed for that.

 

not on your 38

but good point communication especially in the rescue

[mpb]

I was told to keep talking to the casualty, telling him what your doing. Serves as a good reminder.

If you want to go through anything pop in at the weekend and we can go over it, given the top notch guidance you've been given you should breeze through pal.

Hi Joe;

Take on board all the advise already given and don't be flippant about reading the NPTC schedule-all the answers are there for you-it's a simple case of memorising them.

Another point-when you are actually performing the rescue be sure to give loud and clear verbal instructions to the groundie i.e. "have you contacted emergency services?" along with positve encouragement for the person being rescued.Remember this is role play.

Who you got assessing you?
