Last week we conducted our yearly training on bucket truck rescues alongside the City’s Department of Public Service.

The training gives firefighters hands-on experience rescuing an incapacitated person from a bucket truck while they are elevated high above the ground. It also gives our firefighters and Public Service crews an opportunity to work together, build rapport and better understand how each team can assist the other during an emergency.

While this scenario could involve a City employee experiencing an emergency while working in a bucket, the skills practiced can apply to anyone who may need to be rescued from elevated bucket truck equipment.
