(National Fire Fighting Protection Association) standards. These standards are adopted by fire departments all across North America. The program will assist in developing a fire department or brigade in remote or isolated communities, training individuals to become fire fighters thereby being self-reliant in dealing with fire/rescue emergency situations. The lessons are all hands-on, solving real life problems, and practising the skills to save lives. The focus is on fire fighting and team work as it relates to: Operational Safety Hazard Awareness Self Rescue and Rescue of Teammates Rescue of Victims Fire Suppression Equipment Maintenance Department Responsibilities PARTICIPANT RESPONSIBILITIES Your safety is critical. The instructors will not ask you to do anything they believe you are physically unable to complete. However, if you feel that any portion of an assignment is beyond your capabilities you may decide to excuse yourself from that particular part of the activity. Each participant is required to dedicate the five days of training to this course, so that the team is fully prepared. WHAT EQUIPMENT IS REQUIRED As part of RESCUE ONE's service to you and before the scheduled five day course has begun, one of your instructors will make an appointment to spend one day in your area as a consultant.

Your consultant can make the purchases on your behalf, ensuring your budget is strictly followed. There will be no mark up on purchases, no commission and no charge for our expertise and knowledge. We offer this service to you so that when the course begins, you have the necessary, proper equipment. When you and your consultant are satisfied that all the equipment is in place, your five day course will be scheduled. We will provide one instructor for approximately every 6 participants.
