“Saving your own”
October 7 and 8, 2006
Many firefighter deaths are the result of becoming trapped, disoriented, or unable to escape hostile fire conditions. This course will familiarize the firefighter with methods of locating windows and doors, breaching walls, SCBA emergency procedures, following hose lines, sliding ladders, rope rescue and more. Student must be able to tie standard knots and be able to work from ladders. This course includes very highly physical drills while wearing full protective clothing and SCBA.
We have a house to use for this training. Firefighters should have had the basic RIT course and Essentials of Firefighting.
Sign-up at the fire station!
