Training with New Paratech Struts
By 1st Assistant Chief Nicholas DeLaurentis
June 15, 2021
On Monday evening, June 14th, firefighters gathered at headquarters to practice training with our newly acquired Paratech struts. With the use of a donated vehicle, firefighters used the struts to stabilize the simulated rolled over vehicle. Vehicle stabilization is an important job on a fire scene to both provide for the safety of firefighters working on extricating the patient and to also ensure no further harm is done to the patient.
