N E W E X P A N D E D S E R I E S !Vehicle extrication emergencies are a leading category of response for re and

rescue personnel. Responding to these incidents is inherently dangerous because of vehicle trac and many other hazardous conditions. Both the patient and responders lives

depend on solid, up-to-date training in incident management, basic operationalprocedures and knowledge of tools and techniques used to complete an ecient and

eective extrication. Its critical that emergency responders are aware of hazards and howto control them at an extrication scene. Familiarity and knowledge of equipment

use and of new vehicle technology is key to rescuer safety.

To help instructors meet these challenges, we have expanded our Vehicle Extricationseries with new programs on hybrid and electric vehicles, advanced steel and

alternative techniques for situations when the team must extricate trapped patients without hydraulic rescue tools. This 10-title Vehicle Extrication series builds on the

foundation of our existing seven programs, already a mainstay for training invehicle extrication throughout the Fire Service.

Teaches to the current NFPA 1001, 1006 and 1670 standards.

Rapid InterventionFirefighters are accustomed to responding to calls for help from the public, but they are not accustomed to responding to calls for help from fellow firefighters. When a Mayday is declared on the fireground, it is too late to start making up a rapid intervention team. These life-saving crews must be trained, equipped and ready to respond to a Mayday call instantly. A fellow firefighters life may depend on it!

Rapid Intervention is a two-part series on firefighter rescue at structure fires. While presenting many of the prerequisite knowledge and skill requirements of NFPA 1500 and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134, it is based on information from a variety of the latest references. Rapid Intervention goes beyond textbook theory and includes information gleaned from actual downed firefighter incidents.

7 - MANUFACTURING PLANT

Accurate size-up of the fire situation is crucial to the implementation of any strategic plan and its supporting tactics. Size-up starts with the receipt of the alarm and may be carried out many times and by many different individuals during the course of a fire.

The responsibility for size-up initially lies with the first officer on the scene, although all engine company members need to be able to make a personal size-up of the fire situation. As higher ranking officers arrive, the responsibility for size-up passes up the chain of command.

This series focuses on the initial size-up of an incidentby first on scene personnel.
