Whether you're heading to the lake, campground, or job site, trailer safety starts before you hit the road.

No matter what you're towing, Trailer Safety Week is a great reminder to review safe towing practices before every trip.

Improperly connected trailers, overloaded loads, and tire failures can lead to serious crashes, putting you, your passengers, and everyone else on the road at risk.

Before every trip:
• Check your tire pressure and condition
• Make sure that all safety chains are properly connected
• Test that the brake lights and turn signals are working
• Secure all cargo and equipment
• Verify that the hitch is locked and properly attached

A few extra minutes of preparation can help prevent crashes, breakdowns, and injuries.

Last week was full of extrication training across Cobb County Fire & Emergency Services!

From our cadets getting a hands-on introduction to vehicle extrication, to Squads 7 and 12 sharing their knowledge and experience with HERO trainees, there was opportunities to learn, teach, and grow.

Vehicle extrication is a critical skill that allows firefighters to safely remove patients trapped in damaged vehicles following serious crashes. It requires technical expertise, teamwork, precision, and continuous training to ensure crews are prepared when lives are on the line.

We're proud of our team members who dedicate their time to developing the next generation of firefighters and emergency responders. Whether introducing cadets to the fire service or helping train our regional partners, their commitment to education and excellence strengthens our department and the community we serve.

"Stayin' Alive" may be the most famous CPR song, but it's not the only one with the right beat.

CPR chest compressions should be delivered at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. To make that pace easier to remember, the American Heart Association and other organizations have created playlists on Spotify and YouTube filled with songs that match the recommended rhythm.

This CPR & AED Awareness Week, we're sharing just a few songs that match the recommended rhythm.

Because when every second counts, knowing CPR can help save a life.

Every second counts during a cardiac emergency.

If someone is unresponsive and not breathing normally, call 911 immediately, begin CPR, and use an AED if one is available. The actions taken before first responders arrive can make a lifesaving difference.

During CPR & AED Awareness Week, Cobb County Fire & Emergency Services encourages everyone to learn CPR, know where AEDs are located, and be prepared to act when it matters most.

To find CPR training near you, visit the American Heart Association or American Red Cross websites and use their class search tools.

The Cobb County Safety Village also offers CPR/AED classes monthly that are taught by firefighters!

Because when every second counts, being prepared matters.
