Reality Check This presentation will not be like any
fire safety training you have received. IT IS REALITY BASED! The Goal is to have you understand fire behavior and how you can save others and yourself. There will be some “STRONG” statements made, not meant to cause fear, but rather to appropriately prepare you and your family.
![Page 6: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Functional Needs Defined
“Populations whose members may have additional needs before, during, and after an incident in functional areas, including but not limited to: maintaining independence, communication, transportation, supervision, and medical care.
![Page 7: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Group Activity Identify the “Special Needs” of each
Category during Fire! maintaining independence,
communication, transportation, supervision, and medical care.

The Science of Fire Behavior

What is a Fire Really Like?
![Page 10: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Hollywood and TV has done a complete
misrepresentation of FIRE!
![Page 11: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Fire Triangle

The 3 States of Matter Solid Liquid Gas
Example “Under Normal Temperatures and Pressures” –Water is a:Solid= IceLiquid=WaterGas= Steam

Now The Stunning Fact!- Only Gases Burn
![Page 14: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

The 3 Phases of Fire Incipient Phase Free Burning Phase Smoldering Phase
![Page 16: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Incipient Phase Oxygen not significantly decreased Small quantities of CO, CO2 & SO2
released Flame temperature at 1000 F Room temperature beginning to
increase Survival Time_ First 1-5 minutes
![Page 17: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Free Burning Phase Decreasing oxygen levels Superheated Air 1300 degrees One Breath will sear lungs Little chance of survival
![Page 18: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Smoldering Phase Insufficient Oxygen Dense Smoke and Toxic Gases Intense heat cause more flammable
gasses to be released Induction of oxygen causes back
draft No chance of survival
![Page 19: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Why Do FF’s Break Windows?
![Page 20: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What are the Hazards of Fire?
Toxic Smoke and Gasses Superheated Gasses Extraordinarily High Temperatures NO Visibility Lack of Oxygen- CO binds with
hemoglobin 1700 times faster than Oxygen
Loss of Structural Integrity Confusion, Disorientation, Panic ,
Death
![Page 21: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Fire Safety for Functional Needs
Populations Why do Fire Fighters enter the
building when everyone else should Evacuate?
Functional Needs Populations have Specialized Rescue Needs!
Fire Fighters NEED to know if Functional Needs Individuals are in the Structure!!!
Functional needs Registries Reports to 911 Reports when on the Scene
![Page 22: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Mobilization Issues If a “Loved One” wishes to live at
home there are several things you can do to assist in Evacuation and/or Rescue.
Remodel a first floor room to make an appropriate living space.
Locate the room as close to an exit as possible.
Identify the exit route. Build a ramp…even for a few stairs.

Response Time Standard 4-6 Minutes

Is there such a thing as “Spontaneous Human
Combustion”? In 31 years, I have only suspected it
once, but as an arson investigator it turned out to be a combination of smoking and alcohol consumption.
![Page 44: FIRE SAFETY FOR FUNCTIONAL NEEDS POULATIONS](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168b3550346895ddf7e24/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
