Emergency Response Procedure Of NuAdventure
As an operator of adventure tours in both the sea and land environment, it is imperative that NuAdventure has a well designed Emergency Response Plan working with the authorities and NuAdventure guides.
NuAdventure’s emergency response procedure is evaluated and improved year by year. NuAdventure recognises different incident levels.
Minor Incident
Resolved immediately by the guide and the tour continues as normal.Examples: cut or abrasion requiring cleaning and dressing, but no stitches; twisted knee or ankle, dehydration, which does not prevent the customer from continuing after treatment.
Small Incident
Any incident requiring a person (guest or staff) to leave the tour. The person can get out by themselves with some support. Inform an Operations manager as necessary. Complete Incident Form.
Examples: injured knee or ankle, customer can walk out with help, use of a stick etc; cut or injury which requires visit to doctor for cleaning or stitching; diarrhea/vomiting where customer can walk out with assistance.
Local Incident
Serious incident requiring full support from the local office to evacuate an injured/sick person, who cannot get out by themselves. Contact the Operations manager as necessary. Complete Incident Form.
Examples: injured ligament, fracture, other injury where person cannot walk and has to be carried; ; suspected heart problems etc.
Procedure
In the cases of any small, local incident, the tour guide will provide any emergency first aid, ensure the safety of other guests and staff, and rapidly call the team.
Operations Managers will immediately provide the logistics required by the particular incident. They will call for a doctor and ambulance, inform NuAdventure Directors and local authorities as required.
Procedures are in place to deal with possible drowning, fractures, fatalities etc. in these cases, the victim will be evacuated to hospital as rapidly as possible.
At the conclusion of the incident, an incident form will be completed and reviewed by NuAdventure Managers and Directors.
As there are inherent risks in all adventure activities, NuAdventure has many procedures in place to reduce all risks and hazards. The emphasis is always on ‘prevention is better than cure’. Which means it is better to prevent any incident rather than having to deal with it. To this end, NuAdventure has established safety rules and requirements for all staff and customers. These preventionss include, but are not limited to:
- Give a clear safety briefing before the journey.
- Check guests shoes and clothing before the activities
- Tour guides and assistants stay with the guests all time during activity (SUP, trekking etc…)
- First aid kits are carried at all times with the group.
- Guides and assistants receive regular first aid training.
- Guides report back any issues to the NuAdventure team after every tour.
- Weather forecasts are checked at all times, and itineraries adjusted accordingly.
These are just some of the many ways in which NuAdventure endeavors to prevent any untoward incidents occurring on adventure tours.
