Thanks.

Hi,
I merged your two threads since they were so similar.

I'm afraid I don't understand what you are trying to say in your sentence. You can rescue someone or something from a bad situation. You can try to prevent a bad situation. But you don't "rescue to prevent."

Can you try to say this another way?
