ADVANCED FIRST AID COURSE MAERSK TRAINING
Maersk Training have recently teamed up with the offshore wind turbine manufacturer, MHI Vestas Offshore Wind offer an Advanced First Aid course specifically tailored to the needs of personnel working in the wind energy sector.
Due to the increasing distance from shore to turbine and the prolonged time for medical professionals to reach a casualty in an emergency, a greater emphasis is being placed on arrangements for emergency medical treatment.
As a result of this, the course has been designed to build on the skills acquired at the basic first aid level, enabling rapid intervention in the event of severe or life threatening trauma or illness by equipping technicians with the skills required to quickly stabilise a casualty. It also allows personnel to effectively monitor the casualty until specialist medical treatment arrives, or they can be safely moved to appropriate medical facilities.
The course supports delegates in taking a proactive approach to incident management and covers an extensive range of practical skills, such as advanced airway management techniques, control of catastrophic bleeding, CPR protocols including the use of AED’s and administration of gasses in medical emergencies.
Following months of consultation, trials and development the three day Advanced First Aid course is now open to personnel
from all
companies within the wind energy sector and is currently underway with MHI Vestas' UK workforce.

Since the firm’s inception in 1799, Casella has been committed to improving and simplifying design and offering reliable, innovative and visionary solutions to occupational and environmental monitoring.
Casella’s Airwave App has changed the face of dust and noise exposure monitoring. The app can be downloaded by users to a mobile device and can be used with the latest Casella evolutions including the dBadge2 noise dosimeter and the Apex2 personal sampling pump.
The Airwave App makes monitoring workers with the monitoring device a much easier process. The App also enables users to remotely start, pause or stop a measurement run, as well as monitor battery life and memory capacity and check measurement progress and alarms directly from a mobile device without having to disturb the worker. It is also quick to see via the App if the monitoring equipment is not being used at all or used correctly.
The App provides a high level of control, minimising the likelihood of invalid data and maximising productivity. Near real-time status updates are provided and data can be emailed alongside photos and notes, adding context to the data and further simplifying the reporting process.
