Cotton Electric Cooperative visited Red River Technology Center today with their high-line demonstration trailer to present electrical safety information to students in the Construction Technology, Emergency Medical Services, and CNC Machining programs. During the presentation, they discussed the dangers associated with power lines and demonstrated the serious effects electrical current can have on the human body and equipment. While explaining the importance of personal protective equipment, they used a demonstration involving a rejected safety glove containing a hot dog to show how even a very small hole can allow electricity to pass through and cause severe burns to a worker. The representatives emphasized that the safety of both their employees and cooperative members remains their highest priority. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to invest in our students and make a lasting impact on their future.

RRTC’s Healthcare Coordinator, Jennifer Evans, led a training session for the Construction Technology Program on trauma situations that may occur in construction settings. She covered key topics such as the proper use of pressure dressings, tourniquets, when and how to use an AED, and the responsibilities of a first responder during an emergency. Students had hands-on practice using an AED and mannequin, applied tourniquet techniques on each other (volunteer-based), and discussed real-world injury scenarios. It was a very engaging and valuable experience. Thank you Mrs. Evans for investing in our students.
