Description

Incidents that involve animals trapped in Flood and Swiftwater require special considerations and knowledge. This training is provided through both hands-on and classroom instruction. This class covers both the ASAR Swiftwater Rescue skills and the ASAR Floodwater Boat Operations. First responders with existing water rescue certification will receive additional certification that meets required FEMA USAR/TF animal rescue competencies. Small animal rescue techniques will be the primary focus, with additional discussion about large animal issues and hazards in floodwater. Participants need to have the ability to swim in moving water conditions. .
