Feel that they weren’t prepared to handle the risks from the job and had no idea that there were things they could do for prevention
While most of us want to assume that our Firefighter’s station is doing everything they can to prevent injury, You also know that Firefighting is a business.
And I can promise you that your Firefighter is just another number to the accounting department. Business’s don’t think about people the same way that spouses do.
Here’s the thing- most of our Firefighter’s stations are too busy saving up for the 1.5 million dollar truck, worried about response times and hiring new people (because the turnover is wack!).
Your firefighter is likely overwhelmed with all the new training and conferences and station politics- then pile on a lack of sleep, too many reports and it’s no wonder you don’t here much about how you can actually help.
But you can help- in fact, you can help a lot.
Inside is knowledge that will make a difference- The Difference between Life and Death
Learn About Protection for your Family and your Firefighter
Information so that you can be the Hero of your own story- instead of loosing sleep over the 'what-ifs'
Confidently Defend your Family from preventable illness and death
