Description
For rescuers with a basic knowledge of vehicle extrication, water rescue and basic emergency victim care who want to take their skills to the next level.
 
Unusual and extreme vehicle extrications are what this class is all about. After a brief review of extrication principles and new vehicle technology, the majority of class time will be spent in the field at a commercial vehicle demolition yard. You will be challenged to work individually and in teams on increasingly complex scenarios involving car/truck under-rides, flipped/underwater vehicles, commercial trucks and school bus accidents.

Special Requirements
You should be in good physical condition and bring full turn-out gear or equivalent including safety glasses and hearing protection. No SCBA required. You are responsible for your own transportation to the class sites. Class is conducted in Bowling Green, Ohio on Monday and in Sylvania, Ohio, on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
