Spanish Trainer praises Pool Rescue Manikin

Our Pool Rescue manikin is growing in popularity around the world, as lifeguard trainers realize its potential for training.

Not only does it allow trainers to observe a complete rescue scenario – including retrieval in deep water, towing to the side, then extricating the casualty from the water; but it is also useful for testing observation techniques and using a rescue board.

Special thanks go to our Spanish Distributor Maxpreven who have passed on this great testimonial from Patricio Valdegrama Santos of RAL EMERGENCIAS.

 

“I lead a rescue and rescue group in the community of Madrid in Spain, RAL EMERGENCIAS, a group of which I have been in charge for 33 years. I have extensive experience in all types of interventions and especially extensive experience in the training of volunteers.

A few years ago I had the good fortune to contact Maxpreven España for the acquisition of a practice dummy, which we named Pepe. With this we have done all kinds of training as you can imagine, but Pepe has already been with us for many years and is older, so we have asked Maxpreven España for help with a water rescue course in which he has left Jacinto… dummy of aquatic practices.

This has allowed us to make all type of works in the water, rescue, immobilization in spinal board, even ventilations and RCP. Using it, we have learned a lot of important things for our work.

I congratulate you for the creation of this mannequin that will be essential for emergency organizations. The design and structure of the Jacinto that allows you to perform innumerable rescue practices and has been fantastic.”
