In 2017, the North Dakota Safety Council and Roco Rescue began this crazy journey of partnering a forward-thinking safety trainer in North Dakota with a rescue training company in Louisianna. Who would have thought that ten years later it would have turned into such a meaningful endeavor. With a fantastic indoor prop allowing year-round temperature-controlled training and the wonderful staff at the NDSC, Roco Rescue is proud to be the rescue training partner of the North Dakota Safety Council.

Roco’s Director of Safety, Chris McGlynn, spoke at the ASSP Imperial Calcasieu Chapter meeting on Monday, delivering his baseball-themed presentation on complacency, The Home Field Disadvantage. The talk takes a different look at complacency and breaks down practical tactics organizations can use to recognize and counter it from several angles.

We appreciate the invitation and the conversation with the group. Thank you as well to HASC Louisiana Louisiana for hosting the meeting.

Here at Roco, we enjoy giving safety talks, presentations and helping bring awareness to the safety topics teams are dealing with in the field. If you ever need a tailgate talk, speaker for an association meeting, or you just miss us, feel free to reach out. We’re always glad to help.
