Motor Vehicle Accident with Entrapment

During the afternoon hours Ladder 681, Squad 681, and Shelbyville medic 691 responded to a 2 vehicle accident with entrapment in the 6700 block of w 900 n.
Crews utilized many techniques just trained on this past Sunday to make access to the pt. Extrication was complete 15 min after crews arrived on scene.

Todays training with the duty crew focused on limited staffing, first due engineer roles and responsibilities. With Moral Township only staffing 2 members during the day, the 3rd member to complete our attack crew will more than likely be coming from Tanker 81. This places a lot of responsibility on the first due driver.
The driver is responsible for acquiring the required forcible entry tools for entry, clearing the hosebed, charging the attack line, setting the correct pressure, potentially helping to advance that line into the building.
Then, they are responsible for getting water from the first due tanker into their engine, and managing the water supply coming in to the tanker from additional apparatus. This will be done from nursing and or drafting. Essentially they are operating both apparatus until help arrives.

Needless to say many times the first due engineer can make or break an operation. They have their hands full, but through many sets and reps, it becomes second nature.

Training Wednesday evening took us to Anderson Farms. Lt Anderson and family were kind enough to have us out for a review of field fire operations. Crews had the opportunity to drive and operate Grass Rig 81, review fill procedures with Tanker 81, as well as gain awareness of common hazards associated with combines.
Thanks to the Anderson’s for having us out!

This afternoon crews from Moral Township and Fountaintown got together for joint extrication training.
Crews had the opportunity to gain familiarity with each others apparatus and equipment. We focused on door removals, dash displacements, and flapping the roof on a rolled vehicle.
All in all a beautiful evening for some training and learning!
Always a good time when we get together with our neighbors, never know when you’ll need a hand!

As always thanks to Pleasant View Towing for your continued support!

Training Wednesday evening focused on search and rescue. Members traveled to the Fire Department Training Network in Pleasant View to utilize their facility.
Crews performed multiple evolutions with different members each time.
Unlike a career department, in the volunteer setting, you never know who is going to be a part of your crew until you make it to the station. With this it becomes that much more important for us all to be on the same page and of the same mindset. Splitting crews, ensuring everyone is trained the same, and reps are how you make that crew work on the fly.
Strong work to our members for continuing to want to get better, and big thanks to FDTN for allowing us at your facility.
