This is one of our signature courses!
With experience in working within the Hazardous Area Response Team, ParamedicsRus staff are specialists in providing healthcare for those affected by chemical exposure. Also, immediate treatment for non-chemical hazards such as exposure to radiation, lasers and carcinogens can be taught.
Common chemicals & hazards used within your organization can be incorporated into the delivered content. The founder of ParamedicsRus also has experience as a registered Radiation Protection Supervisor and Chemical, Radiological, Biological, Nuclear & Explosive (CBRNe) Bronze commander.
