The Kern County Fire Department maintains a high level of proficiency by continually training. This oftentimes means creating environments that simulate how we operate in the field. In this video, you will see training with chainsaws on a pitched roof prop for ventilation, as well as a systematic victim search in hot and smoky conditions. This allows our personnel to get an experience as close to the real thing as possible. We prepare, set up the training, train, and clean up after the training.
