Auto Extrication 2023



So, Berkshire Ambulance EMT Studetnts and Gt. Barrington Firefighters hone auto extrication skill.





Students in the 2023 EMT class had the chance to work with experienced GBFD firefighters to be exposed to the skills and environment of an emergency where their patients are entrapped in a motor vehicle. They were introduced with amazing capabilities of the firefighters and their tools. Then they had to show how to integrate into a team, assess patients, effectively communicate, triage patients, and how to best remove the patients from the vehicles. Special thanks to Formel’s for the vehicles and space to conduct this valuable training.
