Lead Instructor: Lieutenant Grant Schwalbe, Estero (FL) Fire Rescue
Each year, more than 2,000 civilians are killed in structure fires. When we make life safety our number one priority, all of our actions should be about getting inside and finding them. We give them the best chance for survival when an aggressive primary search is completed within the first 10 minutes of fireground operations. This fast-past class concentrates on the fundamentals and focuses on first-due engine-based search, split search, oriented search, and vent-enter-search techniques. Students will be taught ways to maximize their efficiency and simple drags for victim removal. On completion of this class, students will be more confident in their search and victim removal skills.
