Toledo Fire/Rescue RIT Training


The Toledo Fire/Rescue Department has finished training all members firefighter safety and survival that was part of a department wide RIT training program. Guest firefighters from Maumee, Sylvania, and Fremont also participated on a few of the days as a way to share ideas and training information with other departments.The training also included teaching all members a new proactive approach toward the position of RIT (Rapid Intervention Team). Members reviewed and discussed some of the common threads according to NIOSH firefighter fatality investigation reports that lead to fireground fatalities. Discussed were breakdowns in the incident managment system, comminications, accountability and a lack of understanding to key aspects related to fire behavior and building construction.
