Confined-space and difficult-access medical support that understands the environment.
Complex operations demand credible integration with the competent rescue team, a shared plan and absolute clarity about who controls each part of the response.
Compass scopes work against the site, hazards, rescue plan, access constraints, communications, casualty pathway and the competence required — then deploys only where the assignment sits within verified capability.
Confined space medical cover
On-site paramedic support for high-risk confined-space operations, informed by current City & Guilds high-risk confined-space entry and control-entry qualifications.
Rope-access environments
Clinical capability for rope-access settings following completion and independent assessment of IRATA Level 1 training, working under the required Level 3 supervision.
Planned rescue provision
Integration with the appointed rescue team, site management and agreed emergency arrangements rather than reliance on an improvised response.
Industrial & difficult-access medical support
Clinical planning and paramedic deployment for remote, restricted-access, industrial or otherwise challenging environments where normal access and evacuation may be limited.
For the planning principles behind this service, read Clinical Planning for High-Risk Confined Space Rescue and Get Them Out – But Then What?, including the Clinical Readiness Field Pack.
Compass does not represent itself as a standalone technical rescue team. Rescue responsibility, supervision, equipment, systems of work and site control must sit with appropriately competent organisations and personnel. Rope-access availability begins only after successful training, assessment and certification.
