    Study Notes

    Incident Scene Rehabilitation (Rehab)

    • Rehab aims to reduce risks of injury from extended operations under stress, ensuring no member exceeds safe physical or mental limits.
    • Activation of rehab occurs during extreme temperatures or at the Incident Commander's (IC) discretion.

    Work-to-Rest Ratios

    • Standardized work and rest guidelines for operations using SCBA:
      • For one 30-minute SCBA cylinder: 20 minutes of work, 10 minutes self-rehabilitation (hydration).
      • After two 30-minute cylinders or one 45/60-minute SCBA with protective clothing: 40 minutes of work, 20 minutes rest with hydration.

    Hydration Guidelines

    • Hydration requires:
      • 2-4 oz. of water every 20 minutes during firefighting or medical incidents.
      • 15-30 minutes for hazardous material operations.
    • For incidents exceeding two hours, members receive diluted sports drinks instead of water.

    Rehab Levels and Functions

    • Self-Rehabilitation: Occurs after short incidents with crew-level fluid access for hydration.
    • Formal Rehab: Managed by the Rehab Group for personnel under sustained exertion, providing:
      • Physical assessments, rest, hydration, minor injury treatment, and stress support.

    Resources for Rehab Group

    • Possible resources include:
      • EMSA, TFD rehab equipment, air & light units, hazmat resources, and fitness staff.
    • Groups may call additional support as necessary for effective rehab operations.

    Check-In and Monitoring

    • Initial check-in includes pulse rate assessment; a pulse over 120 bpm requires immediate medical attention.
    • Crew members with stable readings proceed to hydration areas for replenishment.

    Hydration and Replenishment Area Requirements

    • Personnel to rest for a minimum of 20 minutes in shaded, ventilated spaces.
    • Hydration of at least 10 ounces during this period and participation in cool water immersion.

    Medical Rehab and Transport Area

    • Staffed by ALS crews with at least one transport vehicle for detailed health evaluations.
    • Monitoring of vital signs including pulse, temperature, and signs of illness or injury is conducted.

    Reassignment Process

    • After a minimum of 20 minutes of cooling down, personnel reassessed and classified into:
      • Return to duty if medically sound.
      • Remove from duty if exhibiting signs of illness or injury.
      • Transport to a medical facility for serious evaluations.

    Responsibilities of Rehab Group Supervisor

    • Assigned by the IC, the supervisor reports on rehabilitation status, crew availability for reassignment, and injuries.
    • Company officers must ensure crew members are refreshed and medically cleared before returning to duty.
