Experience one of our most popular training courses, specifically designed for handling "Man in Machine" incidents. Whether it's a simple issue like a ring stuck on a finger or a complex situation involving an entire limb entangled in machinery, this course covers it all. Proper training is essential—without it, first responders may find their actions ineffective or even exacerbating the situation.

Our program offers comprehensive, hands-on training with modular practical tool stations and real-life extrication scenarios. It’s tailored to help you achieve "Operations" and "Technician" level training in Vehicle and Machinery Rescue, in accordance with NFPA 1670 standards.

The course will be held on Friday, November 8th, and Saturday, November 9th, and is hosted by the Ramsey Rescue Squad. With a maximum of 40 students and a cut-off date of November 1, 2024, it's crucial to secure your spot early. The cost is $195 per student, and NJ EMT CEUs are pending.

Please ensure you have the required PPE: eye protection, leather work gloves, pants, technical rescue or firefighting helmet, and structural firefighting or USAR gear.
