Yesterday evening, WDFD firefighters got some hands on time with our new to us, live fire system!

This unique training tool provides the opportunity for our firefighters to train in a live environment, while focusing on different techniques, teamwork, accountability and other aspects that surround their roles.

These opportunities wouldn’t be possible without the support of our community and the funds from the Nova Scotia Firefighters 50-50!

Thankfully the weather cooperated enough for our firefighters to familiarize themselves in basic vehicle extrication this evening.

Captain, Gilbert Penner, along with fellow officers, led the group in practicing skills such as stabilizing the vehicle, performing a dash lift, pedal cutting and removing a patient from a vehicle.

These skills are so important to practice, ensuring we are ready to serve our community when needed.
