“The next best thing to a live person…” Specialist Training company Alpha share their thoughts

Specialist training requires specialist manikins and that’s why we have developed a range of training dummies suited to different scenarios, such as our Working at Height Manikin and Water Rescue Manikins.

The newest addition to our range is the Confined Space Manikin, which is the ideal manikin for technical rescue training in difficult access locations. The manikin splits into several parts and can be built once it is positioned in place.

At Ruth Lee Ltd we have been providing manikins to experts in search and rescue for more than 30 years. We are proud to work with specialist training providers who deliver a range of technical rescue and health and safety courses which ultimately aim to save lives.

One such specialist training provider is Alpha Training Safety Solutions Limited, who provide high quality health and safety training across all industry sectors. These courses are delivered from their Training Academy in Poling, West Sussex or on three accredited City & Guilds Mobile Training Units which work throughout the country on client specific contracted training provisions.

Alpha Training have previously purchased manikins in a range of sizes, including Baby, Toddler and Adult. Depending on the business taking part in training, the different sized manikins can be used to create more realistic and challenging scenarios.

Head of Business Operations, Louise Grant said,

“The manikins are used (practically daily) on City & Guilds Confined Space Training courses.  Especially relevant is the Casualty Rescue 6150-05 course where the manikins are used for stretcher practice and patient recovery exercises from a confined spaces environment.  The manikins provide the next best thing to a live person, namely being available at all times and they don’t complain or need danger money!”
