What's Happening? PIO Vlog

[@Samanthaorrs]

I really like the🎇 fact that you explain the fires & wrecks wile posting! It helps us figure out the row of events as they occured

[@OMEDFOY]

"Good morning y'all, please take a seat and we will get started with your master class in PIO content" *gestures to all other fire departments to sit down*

[@aaronmadden4546]

Blaine D. Haha your nice thank you

[@cmcer1995]

Well, a lot has happened since the COVID scare and things are being handled much better now that we know what we're dealing with. One of the reasons I quit nursing after 34+ years being an RN and not because of Fear but the BS that has been going on. Almost 46 years as a public servant LEO and ambulance service as well. Great that so many are sending in patches and other items in support of SMFR. Eric and Connor are a great team of PIOs and really enjoy Connor's responses to what is going on with her smile and laughter. Keep safe and will continue to watch all your videos.

Thanks for putting out these videos. I started following the channel last year. Good job ( both of you) for doing the job you do. As far as I know , there are no departments in the Baltimore, Md area that has this going on. Thanks again !

[@MallaLovsU]

I totally love your KZbinChannel, used it to train for a Role as an american Paramedic. Here in Germany a lot of things might be similiar at first, but the entire dynamic is different. And since the almost the whole world is on lockdown now, I watched each and every video in the past few weeks :D So thank you for all your work, thank you for the insights. Personally I would like to look inside the firehouses a little bit more and on fire prevention.

[@dpm-jt8rj]

Nice to see you guys again and I love the positive attitudes. We'll get through this. I hate to say this, but for the first time since I separated from PD/FD/EMS Emergency Communications in the Midwest a few years ago, I can honestly say I am glad I am not working. Normally, I would jump right in and help, but after 30+ years of work, and with the faith I have that the younger generations have the knowledge, experience, training, and energy that I can rest easy. You do good work and stay safe. I will dig into my boxes and try to find some old patches to send y’all!

[@dpm-jt8rj]

​@@SouthMetroFireRescuePIO I thank you very much. Keep up the good work. I really liked the part with the inspector and the talk about retailers at essential businesses blocking or partially blocking aisles. I am ashamed to say I did not think about that until I heard his comments on the video. I went to pick up Rxs for a family member today at a pharmacy and even they had some aisles partially blocked off. I did not say a word but thought to myself, "What if...?" If they had an HVAC unit that went haywire and filled the store with smoke, it probably would have added 50% more evacuation time for patrons. Just a thought.

Is it better to open a garage door if it’s unlocked or cut it regardless?

[@anddrewb1367]

When multiple units/apparatus are called to an incident how do you decide who is called upon? The closest units?

[@alexdanowski2490]

Correct me if I am wrong but when a call is gone through for example a structure fire. There needs to be a set number of trucks dispatched to the scene. The amount of trucks dispatched varies depending on the department but in most cases at least 2 engines, 1 ladder , 1 ambulance and 1 chief are dispatched. This number of course varies depending on the size and needs of the situation.

[@EricWhiteTheGamer]

There is one video you could if you listen to closely here a full alarm to a kitchen fire which is I found unnecessary!!! For all the units called in... I believe it was 3 engines, 2 ambulances, Chief a ladder and or truck and a few others!

[@UnkleJustin]

Stay safe!! Love from NYC EMS District 4 this morning.

[@The1andonlykyle1139]

I feel the same way running calls as Jeffrey is too especially with the ppe issue we naturally just want to go into the house and help someone but now we have to delay it to put on the lunch lady apron on but you finally get to the pt and everything is normal just with extra stuff on

Decon 17 is for hazmat calls decon 10 is only for decons of medic units or others asked in the case the Lone Tree police car.

[@arizonafirebuff1433]

Ok. Thank you for clarification. Is Decon 10 out of a station?

[@guadalupecovarrubias3487]

That's a nice ACE HARDWARE 👍🏽👍🏽

[@walterpalmgren6873]

To properly encourage the public to properly wear PPE, set a good and proper example. The inspector going into the ACE store for the inspection was clearly not properly wearing his face mask and had a dangling head strap. I love the work of the PIOs and the videos you post. It is nice to see inside and the real life behind the scenes. I know Denver dabbled into it for a short time. I now live in Aurora and wish they did something like this. You guys do a great job.

[@danielfessenden5764]

What’s the address to send patches

[@ahnbra]

What is it the is being used to decon equipment and vehicles in your area? Is there a reason we are not allowed to know for security reasons or did Eric just for get to menchen it? I decon of an ambulance was in another video. I do not think it talked about what is the decon solution/chemical. I am going to rewatch that video also.

Why does the assistant know more than the lead fire marshal

[@NathanInnes]

Just a wild guess, he might be assistant to the fire marshal (2nd in command) the other two could be inspectors working for the office of the fire marshal. So the assistant would be there boss. That's just a guess based on zero knowledge of how it works in America.
