Manlius Fire and EMS

3 days ago

We had another awesome day at our Junior Firefighter Camp!! With the help from our neighbors at Fayetteville Fire & EMS, our members had put together another fun filled day for our campers!

- Adult CPR & AED - Companies learned the life saving skill of CPR. They also learned all about when and how to use an Automatic External Defibrillator.

- Child & Infant CPR - Companies not only learned how to do CPR on the adults, but on a child and infant as well. They focused on the fact that most cardiac arrests in children and infants occur due to respiratory arrest. So kids were taught how to recognize an airway obstruction, how to relieve the obstruction and what to do if you cannot relieve it.

- Ambulance Operations - Companies received an in depth orientation through one of Fayetteville's ambulances. They also learned how to use an ambulance stretcher and a stair chair to move a patient. Finally, they were given a couple of scenarios to put the training they learned yesterday together with the ambulance training today! I think that we have several future EMT's in our group!!!

- Hydrant Training - Companies learned all about fire hydrants: why they are needed, how they are used and how to connect our hoses to them in order to get water to our vehicles.

- Rope Rescue - Companies learned all about building a rope hauling system, connecting it to a rescue stokes basket (used for carrying patients) and rescuing an injured patient who may be down an incline, hill, cliff etc. Companies were then sent down our sloped lawn to rescue a victim.

- Engine/Hose Operations - Companies were taught about the different size hoses we use, when they are used and then got to spray some water. Kids were able to use our "blitzfire", an appliance hooked to a 2 1/2" hose line that will spray large volumes of water and can spray the water a long distance from the exterior of a fire. They also had the opportunity to use our main attack lines, an 1 3/4" hand line. Finally, they learned how to maneuver the hose line around obstacles while it is charged with water, getting them into position to spray water at a target. ... See MoreSee Less

Manlius Fire and EMS

4 days ago

It is hard to believe, but we have now passed the halfway mark of our camp week!!! Today was another full day of both Fire & EMS activities! We started our day with an extra long march around the neighborhood and then it was right into our 6 rotations.
Engine Rides & Deploying Hose - Companies were taught how to deploy a hose line from the hose bed on a fire engine. While some of the company was doing this, the rest of the company members were taking a ride around town in our Engine!
Pictures & Patches - All of our campers had individual pictures taken as well as a company picture. While waiting to have their pictures taken, they also worked on completing their company patches.
Backboarding and KED - Personnel from our neighboring department in Fayetteville worked to teach companies how to treat an injured patient with a suspected neck/back injury. They immobilized patients using both a long backboard, using a Kendrick Extrication Device (KED) and learned how to place a cervical collar onto a patient.
Bleeding & Splinting - Companies were taught how to deal with bleeding emergencies as well as how to use all of the different splints that we use on our ambulance for various limb injuries
Search - Companies were shown a demonstration on how firefighters search for victims in a fire when they cannot see through the smoke. They were also shown how we use a Thermal Imaging Camera (TIC) to look at heat signatures in an environment where we cannot see due to the smoke. Finally, the kids were sent into a room with limited visibility in teams of 2 and were told to search for a victim.
Truck Ops - Companies were shown how to climb ground ladders and were taken up in our aerial truck. While in the aerial, they were taught about the different tasks that we can do from the bucket and then were taken to a window to rescue a baby! ... See MoreSee Less
