由约瑟夫·普罗斯蒂（Joseph Pronesti）
I am very lucky to have been happily married to the love of my life for 25 years, but if I had a dime for every time my bride said, “Joe, you never listen to me!” most of you reading this can relate. This problem can sometimes make its way to the fireground, where the radio transmission from the sender may indeed state something of note that just doesn’t get through to the receiver. Communications can cause severe problems on the fireground and has triggered many a close call or, worse. Communications issues are one of the top five common errors found in the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health’s line-of-duty death investigations. One doesn’t need to go very far to find articles, training sessions, and books specifically addressing conducting and describing conditions encountered.
火场可能是一个动态的环境，但是如果我们只听到正在传达的内容并且无法计算传输以帮助解决真正的问题，尤其是在大火的早期阶段，我们就可以“迷失在雾中”。作为一项消防服务，我们已经非常有能力到达到达时。但是，更大的问题是让其他人根据给出的信息听到，理解和应用策略。
To be proficient, we need to find a way similar to size-ups to assist with listening, computing the information, and putting the strategy pieces of the fireground “puzzle” together. The best way to do this is to listen to fireground audio and place yourself in the role of command. When listening to audio, close your eyes and paint a picture of the situation based on the size-up. It is also important to know your districts, city, response area, and so on. How good are you at hearing the address of a building and immediately identifying the era in which it was built, its construction hazards, the area’s water supply situation, and its occupancy?
When it comes to dispatchers, is your department able to work with them regarding how to disseminate critical information to responding units, or do they just advise you of a fire at “123 Main Street” and neglect to spur on your thoughts by informing you that 123 Main Street is “Bill’s Furniture Warehouse”? One of our biggest issues with dispatchers is when they fail to advise responding units of the exact area in which the fire is reported to be, i.e., a basement fire. For example, consider this dispatcher call:“向酋长派遣。发动机1、2、3;和梯子1，报告在大街123号的结构大火的报告，报道了地下室大火。”If you know your district, you can pretty much know right away the era of the residence from the address. If 123 Main Street is in a new development full of houses built in 2016, you can begin to think about issues that cause the fire service headaches in newly constructed basements.

现在，假设大街123号是据报道，在您的管辖区的一个地区，房屋可以追溯到1800年代后期。这与家具商店的火灾是一个很大的不同，但它的信息将使我们的船员更安全。
以下是调度的音频，并到达火灾中，消防员在屋顶倒塌中被悲惨地杀死。当您聆听时，请闭上眼睛；尝试“画一幅图片”；也许开始制定有关可能的火灾参与，建筑，占用和生命危害，攻击选择以及设备的方法和安置的计划。除非您来自这个城镇，否则您很可能无法确定建造该教堂的时代（在这种特殊情况下，教堂建于1990年代初）。在一个工作日期间，通话时间为1557小时，每小时最多可达15座冰的强风，在该区域没有水消防栓，需要用水驶入。
Remember, the key is not to “Monday morning quarterback” what was or wasn’t done in this tragedy; the key is to use all the media we have available to us from events and then place ourselves into the “starring role” of command, company officer, and so on. The “fog” can be thickest when we first arrive to an event where actions of other companies are already taking place and we have to take command. An inexperienced officer or command chief needs to practice taking in all the information before, responding to, and arriving at an event.
Author’s note: If you are an avid reader of188金宝搏是正规吗，您已经看到退休的首席Skip Coleman的“您会做什么？”模拟练习。我在这里提出的关于聆听和Fireground沟通的建议基本上是同一件事。请记住，目标是在听音频时在个人，公司和部门级别上变得更好。明智的做法是不要至关重要，甚至不考虑您和您的部门在类似情况下会做什么的实际结果。测试您对规模，建筑，策略和策略的了解；使用熟悉的首字母缩写，例如煤炭是财富；并练习您的聆听以避免雾！
