On Monday the AFD had an all hands Elevator Training. Elevator entrapments can be a tricky rescue at times, so it’s important to hone our skills often, as well as being proficient at using elevators to our advantage during fires. Class was taught by the Ohio Fire Academy and some of the legends of the fire service from Columbus Division of Fire. Thank you for a great class and coming down to make us all better!
Also a huge shout out to all of the businesses, Ohio University, and OTIS for allowing us to use their elevators for the training. Stewart-MacDonald, Mill St Village Apartments.
