Fire Prevention and Safety Training Update, June 2015

We have completed another year of the Department of Developmental Services Fire Prevention and Safety training initiative.  The results continue to be very good and we would like to thank all providers for their cooperation in making this program a success.
As a reminder the closed captioning is available on the program by clicking the “cc” button located under the video of the presenter and our Spanish version is available  both on the web and the CD version.
For the 2015 refresher training we would like the providers to utilize sections 1, 4 and 5.  The primary exam should be Exam A and Exam B should be used for a remediation exam.
The training stove continues to be available. This is a great safe tool for realistic simulated fire extinguisher training.  As we shared with you in the past, we have two of these props available, one through the Ct Fire Academy out of Windsor locks, and the second out of the Southbury Training School Fire Department.  Contact Chief Timothy Baldwin at the Southbury Training School Fire Department about how you can obtain this great training tool.
Any questions can be directed to dds.firesafety@ct.gov
