Clark, N.J. — October 15, 2026 — Over the weekend, two Clark firefighters finished a Water Rescue Technician Certification Course, expanding the department's capabilities with specialized rescue training.
Firefighter Jordan Becker and Acting Lieutenant Patrick Clark-Barnes finished the All Hands Fire Training course.
Emergency responders who have received water rescue training are more equipped to identify water-related hazards, evaluate risks, and employ specialized tools and rescue methods in water situations. Advanced rescue operations, victim access and removal, and high-risk rescue environment management are examples of technician-level programs.
For emergency response workers, All Hands Fire Training provides a number of water-rescue courses. Surf, swiftwater, surface water, and other specialist rescue techniques are all part of its training.
