This Sunday morning we held a "Firefighter Skills Class" and an "EMT Skills Class" for our weekly Sunday Training.

This Sunday's "Firefighter Skills Class" focused on reviewing ladder operations and how to conduct a horizontal ventilation during fire operations. This type of training is what will help our Firefighters who plan on attending the New York State Firefighter I program succeed in their class and for our Firefighters who have completed Firefighter I to keep up with their skills.

This Sunday's "EMT Skills Class" had our EMS personnel performing practical skill scenarios as if they were the lead EMT on a call and they also learned how to insert an OPA & NPA on a patient. This type of training is what will prepare our EMT Candidates who are planning to take a future EMT Basic class and for our EMTs who have completed EMT Basic to keep up with their skills.
