BAIL-OUT SYSTEMS
(8 Hours)
Home
PURPOSE: Every year many firefighters find themselves in situations where the way they entered the
structure has been compromised. This results in the firefighter needing to think quickly and decide what their
egress options are. For many the only option is a window bail-out. This maneuver has gained much notoriety
since the “Black Sunday” tragedy on January 23, 2005 where two FDNY firefighters were killed and four others
were badly hurt when they were forced to jump from a fourth floor window of a burning building in the Bronx.
Since this incident, many manufactures have developed various “Bail-Out” systems such as the PETZL “EXO”
and the RIT “FFRED & PRESS” systems to name a few. While all of these systems will work, the key to
survival is not only having the system, but the ability of the firefighter to deploy the system successfully at a
moments notice. The purpose of this class is to provide a safe learning experience where “Bail-Out” techniques
can be practiced in a controlled environment. Students who do not have a pre-packaged Bail-Out system
must come to class with at least 50’ of life safety rope. The student will be taught several options using
personal fire-safety rope they should be carrying in their gear.
NOTE: The PETZL “EXO” Bail-Out system requires the initial training session be conducted by their
authorized training vendors for liability purposes. This course does “NOT” substitute for this initial
training!!!!
CONTENT: Overview and introduction of various Bail-Out systems, Bail-Out options in lieu of a prepackaged system and several Bail-Out opportunities.
EQUIPMENT:..... Full Turnout gear with SCBA (with spare bottle) OSHA and NFPA approved.

BAILING OUT THE WINDOW SHOULDN’T BE AN OPTION!
Be the member that solves the problem if something goes wrong!
(5 HOURS Hands on)
Home
PURPOSE: This course will provide students of all ranks with the knowledge and skills necessary to safely,
effectively and rapidly deploy and advance hose lines of all sizes. Students will learn how to calmly overcome
hose and water problems when things don’t go as planned by using alternative plans during all types of fires.
Students will learn the need to monitor the radio, smoke, heat, flame and visibility to better understand the
condition of the fire building and the fire itself, particularly in their immediate working area. This will allow for
a clear understanding of what’s going on with the fire fight and how the fire is rapidly growing, while corrective
actions are being implemented. Students will learn the importance of understanding the capabilities and
limitations of their equipment, as well as the fire building and personnel.
CONTENT: This all hands on course will provide several scenarios on routine and not so routine hose
evolutions in our training towers. Students will overcome such problems as, damaged hydrants and standpipes,
broken hoses, losing water during fire attack, malfunctioning fire apparatus, short hose stretches,
malfunctioning nozzles and bad hose stretches. Students will also use make shift water to control or extinguish
the fire. Students will repetitively deploy and reload hose as part of these scenarios.

R.O.A.M. (Rules of Air Management)
(8 Hours)
Home
PURPOSE: Every year far too many firefighters die in the line of duty. Asphyxiation (running out of air) is a
leading cause of LODD on the fire ground. The unfortunate part of this statistic is that the cause is
PREVENTABLE, in many of these cases, the firefighter died by simply running out of air prior to exiting the
IDLH environment. ROAM was established based on the premise that “Air Equals Time”. The amount of time
a firefighter can remain in the IDLH environment depends on how much air is in the SCBA and how quickly
the firefighter uses it. The time in the IDLH must account for the time it takes to get to the task location, the
task itself and the time it takes to exit the structure.
There have been many excellent articles written in recent years discussing techniques firefighters can use when
they run low on air. How about not running low on air! How about being Situationally Aware of the
remaining air in your SCBA and determine whether or not you have enough air to continue while ensuring
you have enough air to get out.
This program will discuss many of these relevant topics as well as asking the students whether or are they aware
of NFPA 1404 Standards for Fire Service Respiratory Protection Training, which mandates that firefighter’s
exit the IDLH prior to their low-air alarm activating. Students will also participate in several hands-on exercises
which will demonstrate their situational awareness and ability to be disciplined enough to know when to exit the
IDLH.
CONTENT: Introduction – Statistics; Incident Case Studies; Review of NFPA 1404; Introduction of the
C.A.R.A. acronym; Participation in several hands-on activities; Best Practices for maintain Situational
Awareness and Recommendations

developed a report (TIMS-Traffic Incident Management System) that provides technical guidance and training
programs in traffic incident management for the fire and emergency service providers. This course will present
the guidelines and procedures that comply with the DOT’s Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices and the
National Fire Service Incident Management (IMS) Consortium’s Model Procedures Guide for Highway Safety.

highway safety, setting up safe traffic incident management areas, incident command for highway incidents,
best practices and other sources of information for effective highway incident operations and recommendations.
