Emergency care training manikin RLNCC

for sea rescue exercises

This dummy was developed with the co-operation of Surf Life Saving Australia as a water rescue dummy for IRB Racing, IRB driver training & Tube Rescue practice. After two years of development, several prototypes and extensive testing they were delighted with the result. During the testing, the dummy was also found to be suitable for Jet Ski rescue training and other general rescues scenarios. For IRB driver training you can now train year-round, in the roughest surf, close to the reef and in the coldest weather to practice those fast pickups as many times as you like. This dummy never complains about the cold water, the aching arms and the sore shoulder or jaw from when the rescuer slightly misjudged the pickup! These manikins will provide uniformity in the size and weight of casualties being rescued, an important factor in competitions. The problem for many SLS clubs is to find enough willing volunteers to act as a patient for the IRB rescue teams for practice, especially during the colder months - consequently, skill development suffers. Inflatable Rescue Boat (IRB) competitions/training aims to: Allow crews to demonstrate their techniques and abilities to perform rescues. Bring crews together to discuss and improve IRB techniques and operations. Promote safety awareness techniques for the crew and patients in simulated rescue scenarios. FEATURES & BENEFITS Shortened to 1.5m to be more manageable for a range of rescuers. Dry weight reduced to 20kg, which increases to about 40+kg when pulled from the water. Weighting lowered from the torso to the hips to improve stability in a moving sea.
