After some time without news, I post one last item before the end of this blog ...
An internship "operador HAZ-MAT" in a week has been proposed in the renewal of trained personnel (one would dream!). I jumped at the opportunity.
What a operator HAZ-MAT, is a speaker, a level equivalent to the RAD-CHIM 2 (without the "radiological specialization") of the BSPP, capable of managing a response to chemical character.
At the end of this week we have been trained full-time during the weekend in training camp "del Cuerpo de Bomberos de Chile, which, to my great amazement, could return to our locker room at training camp the BSPP, as it seemed to me full and maintained! A plot of 5 km2, a box, a "house fire" (with black smoke!), a route reconnaissance "cold smoke", several places of simulations of chemical accidents, gas station drive "gas leak ignited ;, classrooms, rooms, restaurant, numerous projects to expand the workspace (extrication, rail transport, etc..), and I forget ...
A the end of this excellent workshop, which was too short for my taste, I skipped an important concept eyes: learning emergency management NBC opens the incredibly trial that may have interventions "fire", and many comparisons are possible!
To summarize, an intervention involving chemicals requires the mastery, among others, the following concepts:
- - Take time to recognize precisely the hazard.
- - Use human and material resources "local" priority that are often quicker to set work and also more suitable.
- - Do not hire staff without being sure of having done a good knowledge and possess the necessary means risk control.
- - Do not hire a team without safety equipment.
- - Do not override safety rules in the presence of victims.
- - Have the constant of pro-activity.
- - The leader "says."
- - The chief delegates to "sub-chiefs."
Clearly, we remove the chemicals are ignited and is almost the same. The big difference is the time to control the danger, a response to chemical character will last between 1 hour and 1 day while the mastery of fire will be about 10 minutes to several hours. But the basic principles are very similar.
