Firefigthers Training

For front-line blue light emergency crews, the key to successfully dealing with any emergency, day or night and in all weather, is realistic training, training and even more training, to be ready for that moment when the call comes in, at any time of the day or night to mobilise to a real emergency. Training should be backed up by written operational procedures based upon experience gained and lessons learnt from previous major emergencies and how they were handled. Much of the learning process for fire and rescue personnel will be to embrace safety awareness.
