The Adamsburg and Community Volunteer Fire Department<\/strong>‘s first scheduled training of the year is a Basic Vehicle Rescue Course.\u00a0 This class is broken up into three separate sections, awareness, operations and technician.\u00a0 Today was the\u00a0second day of the awareness class.\u00a0<\/p>\n

During this class students are taught the basic principals of vehicle rescue.\u00a0 The students learned proper practices for when they first arrive on scene of a motor vehicle collision.\u00a0 They also learned how to stabilize a vehicle to keep it from moving.\u00a0 The students practiced this skill on many different scenarios ranging from vehicles on all four wheels, to vehicles that were upside down on-top of another vehicle.\u00a0 Next the students learned proper removal technique to extricate a patient from a collision without causing additional injury or harm.<\/p>\n

Fire Departments from around the county sent firefighters to participate in this class.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
