#MayDay: The Massachusetts Firefighting Academy's Rapid Intervention Program offers #RIT-related courses for firefighters, training officers, and telecommunicators. View upcoming classes on LMS by searching for "Rapid Intervention" at hraccess-us.technomedia.com/mfa/index.cfm.
The Mass Fire Academy recently completed another Structural Collapse Rescue Technician course. 28 firefighters from across Massachusetts fully engaged with the 8-day curriculum, rain or shine. Thank you to our instructors, Crib team, support staff, and all who made it a success!
Thanks to @RepMcGovern & @RepLoriTrahan for meeting with Massachusetts fire chiefs at #CFSI2024 in Washington, DC, this week. We appreciate their support, as well as the education and advocacy that @CFSIUpdate provides on behalf of the nation's fire service. (w/ @MassFireChiefs)
DFS Rehab, #Drone, and Gator units supported #NorthfieldMA FD and mutual aid at Friday's #BrushFire, which consumed more than 12 acres in close proximity to homes. Many Massachusetts communities have experienced #WildlandFires in the past few weeks: ow.ly/378Q50RqQB9
Last week, the Mass Fire Academy hosted students from @TheRealSVAHS in #NorthamptonMA. They practiced interior searches, used the Mobile Training Maze and Forcible Entry prop, and ate w/ @MassFireMarshal. Thanks to our instructors & support staff for giving the kids a great day!
DFS will be hosting @NFPA for another presentation of "Lithium-Ion Batteries: Micromobility, EVs, BESS." This session will be at our Springfield campus on 5/17/24, and seats are still available! Register via LMS using course code LI2 at ow.ly/BpUi50Rnt7R.
Ropes and knots can be used to secure a ladder to a railing, haul tools to a firefighter at a higher level, and much more. To use them safely, recruits at the Mass Fire Academy receive hands-on instruction in these essential fire/rescue tools, their uses, and how to tie them.
Congratulations to the members of Call/Volunteer Recruit Firefighter Training Class #111! They're graduating in Bridgewater next week after months of training to protect their communities. Join us at 7:00 pm on 5/1/24, or check youtube.com/dfsosfm the next day for video!
More than 50% of MA homes are in Wildland-Urban Interface zones. Protecting your #HomeIgnitionZone, planning evacuation routes, and practicing outdoor fire safety can all reduce your family's risk. Learn more via DFS at ow.ly/B7v450Rop9X & @NFPA at ow.ly/xa9250Rop9Z.
DFS will host another orientation on the latest edition of the Fire Code next week. The 2-hour course on 5/2/24 in Springfield will help familiarize students with code updates and their implications in local communities. Register with course code NC3 at ow.ly/8Aq450Qauwv
Smoke showing! Engine 2, Engine 3, and Ladder 1 transport recruits from the Firehouse to the Burn Building as they continue their training at the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy in Stow.
The three-alarm fire that @NewtonFireDept battled for hours yesterday most likely started with #OilyRags used for staining. The oils in some paints, stains, and varnishes release heat as they dry, and this can ignite a pile of rags in a pile or the trash: ow.ly/EIWu50Rolhe
Ladders are fundamental tools for every firefighter. In these photos, Massachusetts Firefighting Academy recruits practice using 35’ ground ladders to gain access to a pitched roof. There, they would use the 16’ roof ladder for ventilation operations.
The Massachusetts Firefighting Academy prepares recruits for firefighting operations in a variety of different scenarios. These recruits are loading a "high rise" pack, which is used to deploy off standpipes in high rise buildings and other large commercial structures.
Massachusetts has experienced several significant #BrushFires this week. A small flame, errant spark, or ember can start a major outdoor fire in this weather! Open burning is always subject to safety restrictions and you must have a permit before you burn: ow.ly/8Ig850NVg6M
#TechRescue Twosday: In February, @NorthboroFire rescued a person & a dog who had fallen through the ice. Last week, @Brockton_Fire shored up a building that had been struck by a truck. In both cases, FFs had just attended an MFA Tech Rescue course. Make every day a training day!
#TechRescue Tuesday: The Mass Fire Academy delivered a Water Rescue course in Scituate last week. As the weather warms up, FDs will see more emergencies where people are swimming, boating, etc. Thanks to our instructors, support staff, our @ScituateFire hosts, & all our students!
#Passover begins this evening at sundown. Chag Sameach to all our friends who celebrate!
It’s #EarthDay! Did you know the Department of Fire Services has seven hybrid vehicles like this one in our fleet? We’re also in the process of installing six #ElectricVehicle charging stations, supported by a @MassDOER grant, at our Stow and Springfield campuses.
The DFS Boiler & Pressure Vessel Safety Program offers monthly exams for firemen/engineers and oil burner technicians in Stow. The next #BPV exam will be held on 5/29/24, and the deadline to apply is Friday, 4/26/24. Learn more: ow.ly/lGXv50MujgR
