Last week, our members had a chance to run through auto extrication training with a focus on medical scenarios, patient care and triage.
Motor vehicle collisions often require more than simply removing someone from a vehicle. Crews need to assess and prioritize patients, provide medical care, stabilize vehicles, and coordinate extrication; and often all at the same time!
Training scenarios like these give our firefighters the opportunity to bring those skills together and practice working as a team in realistic conditions.
After the scenario was complete, we obviously had to play with the tools a bit more! Our new recruits had the chance to get on the tools, using the cutters and spreaders.
A great night of hands-on training and building the skills we rely on when the call comes in.
