Fire Engineering Books: Responding to "Routine" Emergencies Workbook
This workbook is the companion to Chief Montagna's popular book, Responding to "Routine" Emergencies. The author has developed study materials in the form of questions and scenarios that will challenge the reader to look deeper into the routine calls that all firefighters respond to so they come away with a better grasp of proper actions to take.
The materials in this workbook can be used by an individual or within a group as part of an interactive company drill. Regardless of how this is used, the reader will benefit from gaining a better knowledge of dealing with routine emergencies that the fire service comes face to face with every day. Each study question is referenced back to lessons from the original text. The scenarios are written so that firefighters can relate to the situations and see themselves. The lessons are timeless for any member of the fire service from the biggest city to the smallest village.
