Δημοσιεύτηκε στις January 26, 2024 by Garry

From Hike to Rescue Operation: Teacher's Preparedness and ResQLink PLB Saves the Day

Δημοσιεύτηκε στις December 4, 2023 by Paul

One of the students held the PLB, and we communicated to check if the signal light was flashing. I placed emergency blankets over parent A and a couple of student jackets around him for support.

Later, we found he had broken his femur and dislocated his hip on the opposite side.

Hiker and Pet Saved at the Pureora Forest Thanks to her ResQLink 400 PLB

Δημοσιεύτηκε στις November 10, 2023 by Sara

SAR made contact with me (via blowing whistles) at 10:15pm and we walked 2 ½ hours out.

The team that rescued me were amazing, and were impressed with how prepared I was, and I was actually a bit proud of myself for being so prepared
