Notes
The new rules of rescue have improved the way firefighters and other first responders are able to detect, locate, treat, and extract trapped victims in practically any situation by emphasising factors like innovative training, better equipment, and more intelligent planning by well-informed decision-makers. Whether you live in an urban or rural fire district, working for a paid or volunteer department, increasingly your fire department will be called upon for rescue. This book lays the framework for responding to technical rescues and disasters of all types in the safest and most effective manner.
Contents: 1. Planning for daily urban search and technical rescues -- 2. Planning for rescue-related disasters -- 3. Developing multi-tiered rescue systems -- 4. Rescue apparatus and equipment -- 5. Rescue training -- 6. Commanding rescue operations.
