Residential Primary Search: Aggressive Search Culture

Approximately 95% of civilian fire deaths occur in the residential setting. This should be our bread and butter. Yet many departments are plagued with a passive search culture. Our goal should be to complete a primary search within the first 10 minutes of all structures. If a department is going to be successful in changing the culture of search, it will take buy-in from the top to the bottom, it’ll take training to better understand the effort, it’ll take a system, and it will take time. This class will help you better understand best practice search skills, executing the search, and victim removal.
