Some of our
program offerings....
Dealin’ with
the tough stuff
A line of duty death can devastate a fire
company. With over 100 LODD’s each year, most fire
companies take the attitude that it won’t happen here. What
can you expect if you have a LODD? Our staff will take you though the moments
immediately following a LODD including the following: notification
of family and department members, dealing with the media, insuring documentation
is preserved, preparing for an internal fact finding, and the formal investigation
process. Additionally, this course will address litigation that may follow.
Finally, our instructors will guide you through a “soul searching” process
to review what practices and procedures you already have in place and what
you can do to prevent a LODD. |
