Week 2: Best Practices on the Fireground
This week we will focus on cancer reduction when actively responding to a fire. Materials throughout the week will highlight best practices around SCBA use, preliminary exposure reduction processes, bagging gear, and designating zones on the fireground to reduce exposures as you transition from active firefighting to rehab, and the importance of exposure reporting and documentation.
