The Carver Fire Department is located in Southeastern Massachusetts.
We proudly protect 11,368 people living in an area of 39.58 square miles. We operate out of three stations that protect a primarily residential/agricultural area. Our Department is an ISO 2/2Y-rated Public Department whose 85 members are on a paid on-call status.
What a great training class our new Firefighters were treated to on Saturday. Our Instructors used their imagination in creating two separate Rescue/Maze training scenarios in the Training Building. Our new Firefighters were divided up into two stations. One group worked in the new maze room, another group worked search and rescue scenarios. Great class! (Photo’s by Firefighter, Steve Falconer)
Recruit Training Class #11 was Ladders and Ventilation (Practical). During this practical course our new Firefighters are taught different ladder raises and carries by our experienced group of Recruit Trainers. The class is then split into two groups, with half practicing ladders and the other half concentrating on hydraulic, mechanical, and roof ventilation using our training building and one of the roof-cut props (Blizzard snow storm did help here…) What a tremendous value to being able to have our new Firefighters practice real life scenarios under one roof in our own backyard.
