In this discussion, students will be able to identify ways to prevent firefighters from dying from work-related incidents. Pay attention to the speaker's points as he presents this very valuable lesson.

This discussion should bring all the objectives together to promote a well-managed and safe scene. As the incident commander, we need to constantly be aware of what is happening on the incident scene. This module should give the foundation for the thought process as the incident scene plays out.
