Important notes
Safety for Rivers and Ridges has always being first priority and we have thrived to maintain an impeccable record of having no serious emergency situation. Various facets of safety are taken into account for every programme.
Camp Directors and Facilitators — Trained and experienced outdoor experts who are regularly updated on first aid and rescue techniques. In line with international safety standards we always maintain 5 : 1 Outdoor expert to participant ratio on the outdoor programmes. This ratio is different on large group programmes that involve short structured activities and are not conducted in outdoor locations. All activities are conducted under the supervision of the outdoor experts.
Equipment high Quality internationally accredited equipments are used for all the outdoor activities. This is regularly checked and maintained by our in-house equipment store team to keep track of the quality and stock of the equipment.
First Aid Our every programme gear consists of number of First Aid kits depending on the group size. These are regularly updated in consultation with Medical practitioners. We have tie ups with local primary health centres and hospitals close to our programme sites as a standard safety measure for being prepared for any case of emergency.
Safety Vehicle: A dedicated safety vehicle is present for every programme on the programme location for the entire programme duration.
Precautionary Measures: For every programme, the participants are required to fill in a special information form which includes personal details like blood group, recent illnesses, current medications if any etc. This information is used to design activities and take care and precautionary measures for each individual on the programme.
