Chapter 1: It's Dangerous Out There

Hear dramatic stories about Minnesota first responders killed and injured on scene at an incident.

Chapter 2: General Considerations

Your goal as a first responder is to make an incident better, not worse. This chapter will explain what issues and variables you must take into consideration when arriving at an incident.
 

Chapter 3: Incident Response Protocol

Responders are not exempt from the law. You must establish procedures for responding to a scene. Learn in this chapter what you need to do to keep responders and the public safe.

Chapter 4: Roadway Incident Scene Response

Do you know how to properly set up a scene? In this chapter, you will learn more about setting up the initial block, tapering, flagging, giving people advanced warning and using other resources.

Chapter 5: Special Considerations

First responders are often faced with unpredictable situations. This chapter will help you think of obstacles you may have never considered, like weather, your emergency lights, bridges and overpasses.   

Chapter 6: You Can Make It Safer

The roadways are dangerous. You can't predict or control what other drivers do -- but you can control the steps you take to keep yourself safe. Keep your eyes open and make sure everybody goes home at the end of the day.
