What are the Five Steps to Take ? • Approach from upwind • Reduce speed • Try to ascertain if there are any explosive items on board, such as propane tanks, compressed air, etc. • Observe the situation. Look for survivors. • If necessary, prepare to land a crewmember on the burning vessel to help the injured victim. If the fire appears to be minor, your crew should try to fight it.
List Six Preparatory Steps • Give your vessel’s position and description as accurately as possible. • Give details about the casualty’s condition and advise immediately if there is a change. • Advise the helicopter crew if you are alone with the victim. • If necessary, relay messages through the Canadian Coast Guard or other radio station. • Clear a large area on deck if possible and take down any nearby aerials. • Ensure all loose gear on deck is securely tied down or removed. • In daytime, identify your vessel with a daytime signal, such as a Type “D” smoke signal. • At night, point lights vertically upward or on sails, or fire a Type “A” parachute flare. Then light the best pickup area.
What To Do to Prepare Victim ? Check vital signs once again. If indicated, place the casualty (wearing a PFD if possible) in a stretcher, strapped so he or she can not slip out. Place the casualty’s records (if any), with notes of treatment given. Describe the bandaged or covered area to the medical flight crew along with a brief, detailed history of the event.
Who Controls the Action ? The helicopter crew will direct the course of action.
