<br />
This training was developed in part due to A Safety and Investigative Report (SIT) that reviewed circumstances involving a house fire that critically injured a firefighter.<br />
<br />
The SIT identified several contributing factors that led to the firefighters injuries, including, lack of training and experience in firefighter survival skills.<br />
<br />
The PGFD has continually made available and conducted several training programs including Fireground Survival Training and other similar programs in an effort to make these survival skills second nature.
