This training unit on rescue is part of a 17-unit course package written to aid instructors in the development, teaching, and evaluation of fire fighters in the Wisconsin Fire Service Certification Series. The purpose stated for the 8-hour unit is to familiarize the fire fighter with the many types of rescue work that fire departments are called upon to perform, to show the simple rescue tools used, and to examine the basic procedures for locating, removing, and transporting victims of emergency situations. An instructor's guide sheet provides this information: introduction to the topic, instructor preparation, length of unit, methods of instruction, testing, equipment and facilities required, recommended visual aids, and references. Following a list of unit objectives, a lesson plan outlines the main teaching points and states the preferred teaching method, cites the reference and page number(s) where the information is to be found, and indicates the necessary handouts. Other contents in the unit include a unit quiz, answer key to the quiz, and handouts (graphs, student worksheets, informational material, and forms). (YLB)
