NARRATIVE: Give a brief description of the suppression efforts. Include resources committed by number and type. Document any/all major decisions, observations, and problems.

OPERATIONAL PERIOD:

After Action Review

-Do adjust the content of the AAR to reflect the events of the day, but don’t assume nothing happens on a quiet day. A crew can fall down on quiet days as easily as busy ones. Low stress can breed complacency.

-Don’t over -analyze the day’s events. Discuss only the most important fac-tors and move along. In some cases, you may need to guide or limit the discussion so it doesn’t get too deep or convoluted.

-Don’t allow AAR to bog down with trivia or unnecessary details that don’t relate to unit’s actions and events. If nothing happened, don’t feel obligated to extract a 30 min AAR from it.

-Do time your AAR proper ly. Gen-erally, immediately after the shift pro-vides the best learning. After time passes, people forget that they were confused or frustrated about a specific situation– emotional aspect fades.

Analyze key components of decision making model Recognition - When was the problem realized and by whom? Were there indicators?

Situational awareness— Who was aware of the situation and who was not? How was problem communicat-ed? Did people perceive situation dif-ferently? Why? What was the reality of the situation?

Option development—How effective was the selected option or options? If formally discussed, what was the rea-soning that led to the final decision? Was it valid?

Risk assessment and analysis—Were the critical risks identified? If not, why? Were the risks weighed appropriately?

Action—was the action communicat-ed to the crew in an effective, clear, and timely manner? Was the technical execution to standard? How success-ful was the action at achieving the desired result?

Identify Significant Barriers—Unanticipated barriers, communica-tion barriers, perception barriers, atti-tudes, stress, fatigue, exhaustion. Did the crew recognize and respond to any problems?

Successes—Situation was sized up correctly, potential danger noticed and communicated immediately, action executed exactly as planned, good ideas or options in handling emerging situation

Failures—inquiries and analysis should concentrate on what is right, not who is right. When a failure is identified, determine what should have happened, and secondly what didn’t happen (or happened wrong)

IRPG AAR format- -What was planned? -What really happened? -Why did it happen? -What can we do better next time?

Alternative AAR format- -Planning -Leadership -Obstacles -Weaknesses -Strengths

General Indicators

Ad hoc organization managed by Type 5 Incident Commander

Primarily local resources used

ICS command and general staff positions not activated

Resources vary from two to six firefighters

Incident is generally contained within first burning period and often within a few hours after resources arrive on scene

Additional firefighting resources or logistical support are not usually required

May require a Published Decision in WFDSS

General Indicators

Ad hoc organization managed by a Type 4 Incident Commander

Primarily local resources used

ICS command and general staff positions not activated

Resources vary from single resource to multiple resource task forces or strike teams

Incident is usually limited to one operational period, but may extend into multiple operational periods

Written IAP is not required. A documented operational briefing will be completed for all incoming resources. Refer to IRPG for briefing checklist

May require a Published Decision in WFDSS or other decision support document

Type 3 Incident Characteristics

General Indicators

Ad hoc or pre-established Type 3 organization managed by ICT3

IC develops organizational structure necessary to manage the incident. Some or all ICS functions activated, usually at the DIVS and or unit leader level

Incident complexity analysis process is formalized and certified daily with the jurisdictional agency. It is IC responsibility to continually reassess the complexity level of the incident. When the assessment of complexity indicates a higher complexity level, IC must ensure that suppression operations remain within the scope and capability of the existing organization and that span of control is consistent with established ICS standards

Local and non-local resources used

Resources vary from several resources to several task forces/strike teams

May be divided into divisions

May require staging areas and incident base

May involve low complexity aviation operations

May involve multiple operational periods prior to control, which may require a written IAP

Documented operational briefings will occur for all incoming resources and before each operational period. Refer to IRPG for a briefing check-list

ICT3s will not serve concurrently as a single resource boss or have any non-incident related responsibilities

May require a Published Decision in WFDSS

May require a written Delegation of Authority

Medical Emergency Checklist

1. Declare an medical emergency, and clear tactical radio traffic. a. Identify the nature of the emergency (injury or illness?) b. If injury / illness is it life threatening?

2. If injury / illness is life threatening clear radio frequency to IC/dispatch.

3. Identify or delegate an on-scene Point of Contact (POC) by Resource and Last Name. (i.e. POC is Captain 37).

4. Identify on-scene medical personnel or first responder responsible for evaluation and care by Position and Name. (i.e. EMT Jones).

5. Identify the nature of the incident, number of injured, patient assessment(s), and location (geographic and/or GPS coordinates).

6. Identify preferred and alternate method of medical evacuation and get ETAs.

7. Order additional support personnel and equipment needed for packaging and transportation.

8. Maintain documentation of all information received and transmitted on the radio and phone.

9. Identify any changes in the on-scene POC or medical personnel as they occur.

Things to remember: Consider ordering a Line EMT or Paramedic when resource commitment is anticipated for more than 1 shift and 20 or more persons.

Medivac by air can be accomplished with agency aircraft if it will expedite patient care and accommodate any equipment being used.

Plan ahead for possible helispots for medivac when personnel are com mitted in walk-in situations.

Utilize qualified Helitack to prepare spots and marshal helicopters.

TONTO HEAT ILLNESS/INJURY PROTOCOL

Due to the high heat environment of Arizona. Individuals with signs and/or symptoms of heat related illness (Dehydration, heat cramps, heat exhaustion etc.) will be evacuated from the fire area, and treated as a medical emergency commensurate with the risk of harm to the individual.

The minimum is evaluation by an EMT able to administer IV therapy. Individuals who receive IV therapy will be evaluated by a physician. In all cases, Individuals will not return to fire duty for at least 24 hours. Medical Clearance may be required prior to returning to fire duty.
