School Bus Emergency Extrication, an Emergency Responder’s Perspective

Over the last few years, we’ve talked a bit about working with local police and law enforcement on emergency extrication of school buses. Today, at FireEngineering.com Tom Kiurski, training coordinator, paramedic, and director of fire safety education for Livonia (MI) Fire & Rescue, tells the story from his perspective, including what it takes to get a school bus on which to practice and the contents of the three-part course. Just like the school transportation industry, he calls on his colleagues to increase cooperation and education for the sake of safety.
