Today vehicle extrication is as much a part of the fire service as firefighting. This class deals with tools and techniques required to remove an entrapped victim from a vehicle accident. Emphasis is on proper use of powered and manual rescue tools and air bags, coordination with EMS personnel, vehicle designs, ICS, and safety considerations. Participants will apply these techniques in practical applications.

Course Objectives: At the completion of this course the student shall be able to:
Plan for a vehicle incident; Establish “scene” safety zones; Establish fire protection; Stabilize a vehicle; Isolate potentially harmful energy sources; Determine the vehicle access and egress points; Disentangle victim(s); given an extrication incident; As a member of a team, remove a packaged victim to a designated safe area given a victim transfer device, designated egress route, and personal protective equipment, so that the team effort is coordinated, the designated egress route is used, the victim is removed without compromising victim packaging, undue injury is prevented, and stabilization is maintained; and Terminate a vehicle rescue incident.
