A 45-hour Lamoille extrication training course on vehicle rescue operations was held by the Hardwick Fire Department, April 12th. Using trucks supplied by All Metals Recycling, firefighters from several departments participated in practical evolutions. Crews rehearsed patient evacuation, access, and stabilization strategies used in car crashes involving entrapment.
Realistic training scenarios, according to officials, are essential for enhancing reaction capabilities and guaranteeing safe, efficient operations during complicated events. The Hardwick Fire Auxiliary also contributed to the training by helping with logistics during the event.
