Die 40-jarige is verbonde aan die Stellenbosch-nooddienste en is een van drie reddingspersoneellede van die Kaapse Wynland-distrik wat aan die WREC in Portugal sal deelneem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIndien jy \u2019n held wil wees en di\u00e9 werk wil doen om vinnig te jaag of om \u2019n uniform te dra, moet jy dit los. Mense sal sterf indien d\u00edt jou motivering is,\u201d s\u00ea Mouton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saam met Donovan van Schoor van die Paarl-nooddienste het Mouton die Wynlande verteenwoordig en koning gekraai by die provinsiale kompetisie wat Donderdag 6 Junie in Worcester aangebied is. Nou sal hulle saam met reddingswerkers van Eden en die Weskus aan die internasionale kompetisie deelneem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDit is \u2019n groot voorreg en ek was \u2019n bietjie uit die veld geslaan om genooi te word. Ons moet nou ons eie kostes dek, maar ons registrasiegeld is gelukkig reeds betaal,\u201d verduidelik hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mouton, wat in Stellenbosch gebore en geto\u00eb is, is oorspronklik van Jonkershoek. Hy het meer as \u2019n dekade gelede besef die nooddienste is vir hom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEk was van kleins af mal oor \u2019n brandweerwa. My ouers vertel ek was altyd opgewonde om een te sien en ek het lankal gedink ek sal \u2019n brandweerman word,\u201d skerts hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die pad na die nooddienste was egter nie \u2019n reguit pad nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dit was as klerk by Mediclinic in 2010 dat Mouton \u2019n geleentheid gesien het om as \u2019n ambulansman te kwalifiseer. \u201cDie werk het dit duidelik gestel \u2013 indien ek die kursus gaan doen, het ek nie meer \u2019n pos nie. Dit was \u2019n moeilike besluit, want hier gaan jy van \u2019n versekerde werk, \u00f3f ek volg my droom.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mouton het egter besluit dit is sy kans, het bedank en besluit om die ses weke lange kursus by die Western Cape Emergency College in Tygerberg te voltooi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sy eerste aansoek by die provinsiale nooddienste was onsuksesvol, maar Mouton het intussen \u2019n pos by ER24-nooddienste gekry. Die tweede onderhoud by die provinsiale dienste was \u2019n sukses en sedert 2012 werk hy vir die Wes-Kaapse nooddienste. Mouton het later, in 2013, besluit om as tegniese reddingswerker gekwalifiseer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOns is \u2019n gespesialiseerde eenheid vir soek, redding en onttrekking. Hierdie werk gaan nie net oor die tegniese vaardighede nie; jy moet \u2019n geestelike kapasiteit, empatie en liefde vir mense h\u00ea. Jy is dikwels \u2019n pasi\u00ebnt se laaste hoop en indien jy weet jy het hulle in die beste van jou vermo\u00eb gehelp, was dit \u2019n goeie dag.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vir Mouton is dit sy vrou en twee seuntjies wat sy voete op die grond hou, en om in die natuur te wees, is deel van hoe hy die uitdagings van sy loopbaan verwerk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mouton en sy kollegas oefen nou hul mediese en tegniese vaardighede vir die WREC in November. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die ervaring wat hy onder meer by die George-woonstelblok-tragedie en \u2019n onlangse bergredding in stormtoestande opgedoen het, sal nou op die proef gestel word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die kompetisie fokus op die uithaal van slagoffers uit voertuie n\u00e1 motor\u00adongelukke, oftewel <span>extrication<\/span>. Mouton s\u00ea dit is \u2019n eer net om genooi te word en hy sien uit om by sy internasionale kollegas oor die w\u00eareldwye standaarde vir noodreddingsdienste te leer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn hierdie loopbaan kry jy nie altyd \u2019n dankie of \u2019n klop op die skouer nie, maar dit is nie waaroor dit gaan nie. Die beloning is om \u2019n reddingswerker te wees, om te weet jy het iemand gehelp en die gevoel van innerlike vrede wat daarmee gepaard gaan.\u201d<span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul
