Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

SISORSC003 - Perform complex vertical rescues

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Determine rescue requirements and prepare for rescue.

  1. Assess situation, identify hazards promptly, assess risks and manage to avoid injury to self and others.
  2. Determine appropriate rescue methods and techniques for situation, according to degree of urgency and condition of persons in need of rescue.
  3. Select rescue equipment according to requirements.
  4. Determine roles and responsibilities of others, complete a briefing and provide clear and concise instructions throughout rescue.
  5. Implement rescue operations according to organisational policies and procedures for emergency response.

Establish systems for complex rescues.

  1. Determine need for use of mechanical advantage systems, identify and establish type appropriate for rescue situation.
  2. Select and rig or establish multiple anchors, ensuring equalisation and minimise potential for shock loading.
  3. Promptly establish rescue systems required to raise and lower persons for complex situations.
  4. Rig rescue ropes to minimise effects of rope stretch and rub points and for efficient ascent and descent during rescue.
  5. Establish belays suitable for rescue circumstance and to ensure personal safety during rescues.
  6. Verify manufacturers’ recommendations, equipment limitations and safety margins, and rig equipment accordingly.

Conduct complex rescue of others.

  1. Identify situations requiring approach from above or below and implement suitable approach procedures.
  2. Establish communication with rescuee and provide clear and concise instructions and information throughout the rescue.
  3. Operate rescue system to raise and lower persons on single and multi pitches.
  4. Safely and efficiently escape a loaded belay system and transfer from belay device to direct connection to anchor.
  5. Maintain safety of self, others and rescuee throughout rescue operations.
