Training Exercises

Your Firefighters don't just sit around the station waiting for a call for help. Every shift the Lieutenant schedules a drill in order to keep the skill level of the Firefighters high as well as to teach new techniques as they are developed.

Since 80% of our calls are for emergency medical services, and many of them are due to traffic accidents, some of the drills are designed to increase our proficiency in vehicle extrication as shown in the following photos.

After drilling some firefighters find rest using a multi-purpose extraction tool while others discuss the operation.
