Emergency services only have 4-6 minutes to respond after calling 9-1-1 and rescue an individual from a confined space before the brain is medically considered dead (6 mins). Unfortunately, the current reported national average for response times of emergency services sits steadily at 15 minutes.

Not all rescue services or emergency personnel are trained and equipped to conduct confined space rescues. 

The lack of proper equipment, trained individuals, and availability leads to recovery versus a rescue.
