☀️ Thank you, Lakeside Elementary, for inviting us to your first responder day!

👩🏼‍🏫 The students were so patient and well mannered and the teachers were equally excited to not be the ones teaching!

⛑️ We explained to the kids how Rescue is different from Fire, how air bags and cribbing can assist in rescuing cattle, what the the cutters and spreaders should and should NOT be used on, A B C and D pillars on a vehicle, rope rescue tools and the most asked question: what happens when the battery for a tool dies? (Don’t worry, we have plenty of back up batteries!)

Mitchell County Rescue Squad trained on the ropes last night.

High-angle rope rescue involves using specialized ropes, harnesses and hardware to rescue individuals from terrain with slopes of 45 degrees or more, such as tall buildings, cliffs, or grain elevators. Rescuers rely on main and belay systems with safety mechanisms — to rappel, stabilize and raise patients.

Rescuers utilized the Res-Q-Jack struts and a pin-free head fitting to create a technical rescue tripod. We were able to anchor off of a truck and members of multiple entities were able to take turns completing duties for the rescue.

Thank you to Mitchell County EMS and Mitchell County Rural Fire District #3 for taking the time to “learn the ropes” so we can all work as a better team in a time of need!

Thank you, Leadership Mitchell County, for having us at your event! Any time we can spread the word to our community, is a good day!

Please ask about our ROTH ID TAGS at any time.
The ROTH ID TAG Identification System is an information tag that can be affixed to any car seat or product used by an infant, young child, or person under the care of a guardian. If the driver becomes incapacitated for any reason, first responders are trained to look for these tags for the next emergency contact. From car seats to walkers, for young to old, the options are endless!

Look for us at the this Mitchell County Fair, Beloit KS this summer! We will have useful giveaways and fun information. We are always accepting new members. Ask for an application today!
