13. Rescue Techniques and Procedures (High Risk)
13.1 Criteria: Rescue Without Entry (Preferred) vs Rescue with Entry (Only if Included in the Plan)
13.2 Extraction and Evacuation Procedures (Depending on the Scenario)
14. Practical Exercises and Assessment
14.1 Full Work Planning: Dynamic Risk Assessment + PTW with Annexes (Readings, Isolations, Emergencies)
14.2 Scenario Set-Up and Enhanced Control: Barriers, Access Control, Redundant Communications, Register
14.3 Advanced Monitoring: Remote Sampling, Stratified Measurement, and Continuous Monitoring During the Intervention
