Another training opportunity....

🚁 “It won’t happen here.”
Multiple medical helicopter crashes this year alone—on-scene, mid-response, in the middle of doing exactly what we call them for.

This isn’t just a “where do I put the cones” landing zone class. This is what do you do when things go sideways—rotor strike, fuel leak, fire, downed bird on your scene. Spoiler: it’s not in your EMT textbook, and you don’t need an EMT patch on your shoulder to show up.

📅 September 20th, 3000 Aviation Dr Winston-Salem, NC 27105 at FCFD HQ @ 1030 AM.
Hosted by Forsyth County Fire Division
Open to ALL public safety agencies (yes, that means you).

Don’t wait until you’re standing next to a burning helicopter to wish you’d sat in on this.
