  1. mmmmm interesting Fred03.

     

    i wonder if techniques from australia and usa vary alot or a little?

    so basically the unit itself does need to be accredited and an authorised unit over there as they do here,as long as the members are trained, all is good.

     

    maybe we have to much red tape here lol

    but what it comes down to here is lawsuits that why we have so many rules and acreditations for extrications as we are starting to see alot of attempted lawsuits going through the judicial system because someone says " my friend died because it took to long to get them out" and want to sue

  2. With us it was always in the training records.  So if the government. Crown or defense council came in and was like, when was your last practice on this, the training officer could pull it up and say this FF was trained on this date and did a follow up on these dates.

     

    I would say that it would probably be similar in most American/Canadian situations.

     

    but does the service that does the rescue work have to be accreditted to continue their rescue work ?

  3. over here for the state emergency service or the fire service (mfb or cfa)

    we have to an acreditation to prove that members know how to use the jaws of life and associated tools.

     

     

    Fred03 and Newfoundking so what do the emergency services do where you are to get the qualifications and use the "jaws of life"

     

    here is a little reading on what happens here in the great OZ

  4. Hi guys.

    This friday the 02/05/2014 our unit has a rcr accreditation.

    this is for us to prove to the state government that we can do the work and keep our accreditation for our unit.

     

    i was wondering do other services overseas that do rcr work have to have an accreditation once every 5 years or so?

     

    cheers

    kevin
