Next week, the week of 16-22 June, is being observed as Fire/EMS Safety and Health Week. This year’s theme is “Saving our Own… An Inside Job.” International Fire/EMS Safety and Health Week is a joint initiative of the International Association of Fire Chiefs and the National Volunteer Fire Council. The event is coordinated by the IAFC Safety, Health and Survival Section and the NVFC Heart-Healthy Firefighter Program; it is supported by national and international fire and emergency service organizations as well as health and safety-related organizations and agencies.
Fire departments throughout the U.S. are encouraged to suspend all non-emergency activity during Safety Week and to focus entirely on survival training and education until all shifts and personnel have participated.
