Heading for the Perfect Storm DVD
As storm waters rise; this action packed short film charts the experiences of a Team of UK fire officers led by Chief Fire Officer Paul Hayden of Hereford & Worcestershire Fire & Rescue Service, UK and their preparations in the North Carolinas and Federally, USA focussing on the:
- Helicopter Aquatic (Helio- Aquatic) Rescue Techniques
- Swift Water Rescue
- Power Boat Operations in Swift Water
- In Country (USA) Emergency Services - Special Operations
- Equipment for Swift Water Deployments
Strategic and Logistics questions and the vital answers to questions raised so far as they research what climate change has in store: floods, hurricanes, severe storms.
Are the Tactics correct - will Dynamic Risk Assessment and ‘swiftwater rescue’ techniques work (“Rescue 3 UK”, and others, basis for floodwater rescue tactics) - are rescuers trained sufficiently to face these tremendous risks to life in very hazardous conditions?
Follow, as they share their expertise and experiences with the Charlotte Fire Department, North Carolina Army National Guard and North Carolina Emergency Management Department (EMDS), USA. See the outstanding leadership given by Deputy Chief Jeff Dulin, Battalion Chief Tim Rogers, and their colleague Jeff Cardwell. They have learnt the hard way, hammered in the ‘Hurricane Season’ of the Carolinas – where drowning and devastation occur on an all too regular basis.
