This past Wednesday we had winter on our mind when it came to training. Members were tasked with removing a patient from a snowblower. Members used various hand and power tools to carefully dismantle the snowblowers to gain better access to the area of injury and successfully extricate the patient from each snowblower.

The last few weeks we have been spending a lot of time with Hamburg Central School District High School! We started with the annual Ambulance Day with the EMT class where the students can meet members of local fire departments and learn about their ambulances. Then we helped block roads and have our ambulance on standby for the Bulldog Dash 5K. Lastly was assisting with the Homecoming festivities including the parade to Howe Field as well as our ambulance on standby in case of any injuries at the Varsity Football game. We love helping at our local schools and being a part of these community events!

Last week we were fortunate enough to train in an acquired structure on Buffalo Street. This unique opportunity provided us with real-life training; we were able to do everything but burn it down. Some training topics we covered included: residential search, VEIS, wall breaches, victim removal, forcible entry, and roof operations. We are so grateful to the Village Vet and Kirst Construction who provided us with the valuable training opportunity. The Chiefs are very proud of how hard our members worked- lots of sweat and swollen muscles after these trainings. It’s opportunities like this that allow us to further our skillset to better serve our community!
