Approach considerations for EMS calls


Name: Peter Jaskulski/courtesy of EMS1.com


Keeping you and your crew safe begins with your initial decisions in approaching the emergency site. Approach Considerations consist of decision making — your justification for and desirability of approaching at this time; tactical deployment — how you approach; and tactical evaluation – threat assessment. Learn how to do it safely and how to explain your decisions.

Presented by:
Peter Jaskulski
Captain/Training Director — Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office
Assistant Fire Chief — Hales Corners Fire Department





Training Bullet Points:

  • 1. Decision Making
  • 2. Tactical Deployment
  • 3. Tactical Evaluation
