Safety Stand Down is June 19-25, and this year’s theme is “Situational Awareness: The Foundation for Good Decision Making.” Situational awareness is critical during response operations as it can help emergency responders to solve problems, prevent bad outcomes, and make better decisions in high-stress environments. To prepare for Safety Stand Down, join the NVFC and subject matter experts on June 15 at 2pm ET for a live discussion that will focus on situational awareness during EMS calls, wildland incidents, and roadway response.
Registration is not required and this discussion will be streamed to the NVFC's Facebook page on June 15 at 2pm ET. Can't join on Facebook? Watch on Zoom instead.
