Thin Red Line Decon

Last week at Fire Industry Education Resource Organization (F.I.E.R.O.) in Greenville, SC was one for the books! Our President/Owner Tonya Herbert taught TWO classes - one on Preliminary Exposure Reduction and one on Gear Storage. We were also lucky enough to tour Safety Components, which allows us to be as knowledgeable as possible in the various materials we use for repairs. Looking forward to next year! ??

????? WEEK 4 of #FireFighterCancerAwarenessMonth: Reduce Your Exposure to Carcinogens - On-Scene Gross Decon o Wet Decon: Wet decon is 85% effective at removing PAHs. o After on-scene gross decon and before eating or drinking, wash hands with soap and water. In lieu of soap and water, use disposable wipes for face, neck, and all areas of exposed skin, and hand sanitizer for hands. o Doff decontaminated gear and seal in a leak-proof bag. Place bagged gear in an outside compartment on the apparatus. Do not transport any contaminated PPE/equipment in the cab of any apparatus as it will transfer contaminants to apparatus seats, resulting in exposure to the next member who enters due to cross-contamination.

WEEK 4 of #FireFighterCancerAwarenessMonth Advocating for yourself and your health in the fire service, especially when it comes to cancer risk reduction, is incredibly important! Given the challenging nature of the job and the traditional mindset in many departments, pushing for changes can be difficult. However, it’s CRUCIAL for long-term well-being. Here are some tips that can help! #FirefighterCancerAwarenessMonth #FightFFCancer #doingitright

WEEK 4 of #FirefighterCancerAwarenessMonth focuses on survivorship and two of the biggest challenges in addressing cancer within the fire service: personal responsibility and culture change. By working together, we can lower the risk of occupational cancer, build safer practices within the fire service, and ensure that we not only survive a career in public service but also enjoy a long, healthy retirement with our loved ones.
