🔥 🚒 HFD Training Recap 🔥 🚒
Over the past few weeks, Holyrood Fire Department crews have been completing hands-on training focused on water supply operations, SCBA skills, and communications.
Crews completed portable and float pump operations, focusing on establishing water supply from ponds and static water sources. Training included setup, flow management, and maintaining a reliable water supply for rural fire response.
Recruits and members also completed SCBA training, covering donning and doffing procedures, cleaning, maintenance, and equipment familiarization, with some members getting their first hands-on experience.
Last night, crews were in the apparatus bay working together on communication skills, search techniques, and SCBA operations in low/no visibility conditions. Firefighters used radio communication and partner guidance to move through the space to locate tools and a simulated victim.
Great work by all members over the past few weeks!
