Search and Rescue Consultation

 

First, Thanks for the time, materials, and efforts you professionals gladly give in service of your fellow human beings.  Surely, over the past decades and more, many children have a parent, or parents have a child due to the selfless acts performed by these, often unsung, hero's.

We offer a number of services that will be of benefit to your efforts.  Starting with consultation, we are glad to assist you with development of your Vulnerability Assessments and Risk Exposure Ratings,  Preoperational Plans, Training and Readiness Programs, Equipment Caches,  Leadership Structures, Funds Raising, Search Skills and Search Management, as well as Technical Rescue Skills.

The Most Important thing is to start pulling these skills together, so you will continue to be ready to answer that emergency call.  We gladly give a Professional Discount to SAR Professionals (both paid, and unpaid with proper ID).

Safety is one of our specialties, first of all, because life and limb can not be replaced, it is kind-of a moral responsibility we have towards each other.  Second of all, because investing in safety increases your profit.  At first thought, that idea may not feel that way, but in reality it does because personnel are valuable, especially when you have invested time and money into finding a good employee, and then invested more time and money into training them how to do the job the way it needs to be done.  A lost-time accident can be prevent with good training, and the right attitude.   Also you can save on insurance, prevent OSHA fines, and improve moral which leads to better performance and less employee problems that can come from poor moral, i.e.: lost and damage equipment, theft, etc.  We teach many standard types training, as well as develop training to fit your needs.

Lectures and Speaking Presentations

Lectures and Speaking Presentations: The saying to the right is an example of Mr. Hansen's way of thinking.  "We have proven, time and time again, nothing is impossible, it is simply a matter of energy, resources, and time, before we figure out what it takes to make something work, or happen," Hansen says.  His public speaking presentations have been enjoyed by thousands.  He has often been quoted about the way life works, and key factors like: "The Win-Win Attitude (he teaches there is no such thing as a Win-Lose, only Win-Win, or Lose-Lose," because in a win-lose arrangement the supposed winner ultimately loses because we really can't harm someone else without ultimately harming our self.  Kind of the old, "What

comes around, or  karma, as some call it.  Sportsmanship, and how healthy competition  works.  The points in

 the game, or the summit of the mountain are just the excuse to play, or go climb.  The real reason we climb a mountain, or participate in a game of football or basketball is: the enjoyment of getting out in the natural environment or getting some good exercise, interacting with friends and team mates, pushing ourselves to new heights,  comradery, learning, the excitement of the activity, and so on.  It is easy to forget this, and end being injured, or ruining all the fun.  To schedule a lecture, fireside talk, or other presentation just give us a call, and we can talk about your objectives, theme, type of group, possible ideas and a list of the various standard presentations already available.
