In July, Nerstrand Fire & Rescue reviewed SCBA operations and air tank filling procedures.
An SCBA (Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus) is the critical gear that allows firefighters to safely enter smoke-filled or toxic environments. It provides clean, breathable air—helping protect us from heat, smoke, and hazardous gases while we do our job.
Regular training like this ensures we stay sharp and ready to respond safely and effectively—because in an emergency, seconds matter and there’s no room for error.
