Today’s firefighters are not seen in the traditional suppression only role, but are seen as professional experts in the field of fire/rescue. Our firefighters come in contact with literally thousands of people every day yet we are a national leader in fire deaths because simply if our firefighters are not educated on the problem then how can we expect them to effectively educate our citizens.
How do you or your department prepare line firefighters to educate your citizens, or to conduct other prevention activities? How involved are your suppression companies in prevention activities?
