ROPE RESCUE
Rope rescue is the foundation of all other disciplines in the rescue world such as water, trench, and structural collapse. A select group of Jackson Fire Department Members have been trained in this discipline, (based on the NFPA 1006 standard). As viewed here, the members continually train in lowering, hauling, and patient packaging techniques. Working with the water company, training is conducted utilizing one of the many water towers located within the township. As with all trainings, Incident Command, along with Safety are the issues stressed to all members.
