Jackson, NJ - The tour conducted a focused vehicle extrication skills drill, reviewing step-by-step procedures and practicing key techniques used at crash scenes. Crews trained with hydraulic tools and learned methods to stabilize vehicles to prevent movement. They also practiced creating space through door and roof removal, as well as performing a controlled dash move—all while managing and protecting the patient throughout the process. This hands-on training enhances the crew’s ability to work faster and safer when responding to real emergencies.
