Members Complete NYS Surface Water Rescue Class

🌊 **NYS Surface Water Rescue Training** 🌊

Congratulations to the members of the Bedford Hills Fire Department who successfully completed the New York State Surface Water Rescue course.

This specialized course emphasized rescue operations in flat or slow moving bodies of water, including pools, lakes, ponds, and bays. Members received hands on training and developed the skills needed to safely respond to water related emergencies.

A special Thank You to the Town of Bedford Recreation Department for allowing us to use the Bedford Hills Pool for the pool portion of the training, and to the Stillwater Lake Association for allowing us to use Still Lake for the lake portion of the training.

Our members’ continued dedication to training strengthens BHFD’s rescue capabilities and helps us better serve the Bedford Hills community and our mutual aid partners.

Great job to everyone who completed the course🚒🌊

🌊🚒 Joint Water Rescue Training 🚑🌊

Members of the Bedford Hills Fire Department recently joined with the Katonah Bedford Hills Volunteer Ambulance Corps (KBHVAC), Katonah Fire Department, Yorktown Heights Fire Department and their Dive Rescue Team for a joint water rescue training exercise at the Bedford Hills Pool.

Crews worked together practicing various water rescue techniques while focusing on teamwork, communication, and coordination between fire, EMS, and lifeguard personnel. Joint training opportunities like this help ensure our agencies are prepared to work together safely and effectively when called upon for a water-related emergency.

As part of the evening’s evolution, the Yorktown Heights Dive Team also conducted a detailed overview of their Dive Team operations, including equipment familiarization, deployment procedures, and an explanation of how dive resources are activated and integrated into water rescue incidents. This provided valuable insight for all participating agencies into underwater search and recovery capabilities and interagency coordination during dive operations.

A special thank you to the Town of Bedford Recreation Department for allowing us the use of the Bedford Hills Pool, and to their lifeguard staff for participating in the training alongside our first responders. Their assistance and involvement helped make the evening a great training opportunity for everyone involved.

Thank you to all the members and agencies who participated and continue to dedicate their time to training and preparedness.

🚒 Monday Night Training Goes on the Road 🔋

This evening, members of the Bedford Hills Fire Department, along with firefighters from the Bedford Fire Department and Katonah Fire Department, took Monday night training off-site to learn about the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) installed at the Vail GMC property in conjunction with its rooftop solar panel array.

Representatives from Sprocket Power, the company that installed the system, and ESRG provided an informative overview of the system, covering key operational considerations, safety features, emergency response procedures, and the locations of critical system shutdown and safety switches.

As battery energy storage systems become more common throughout our communities, training like this is essential to ensure our members are prepared to respond safely and effectively to any incident involving these evolving technologies.

A sincere thank you to Sprocket Power, ESRG, and Vail GMC for hosting this valuable training opportunity and helping our members continue to expand their knowledge and skills.
