Search & Rescue Part 2: Operational Considerations Dvd [Reino Unido]

Since more than 80 percent of all civilian fire deaths each year occur in residential dwellings, search and rescue is an essential fireground task as integral to firefighting as stretching and advancing handlines for fire extinguishment. However, such a task often places firefighters at risk, especially when searching near the seat of the fire without the protection of a charged handline. Captain Bill Gustin, a 27-year veteran of the fire service, gives you important information to accomplish the search and rescue mission in private and multi-family dwellings. Learn how to plan your searches, coordinate them with other fireground tasks, adapt them to changing conditions, and execute them as safely as possible. Part 2 includes fireground coordination, communications, and tactics and procedures. (Originally taped in 2000.)
