What is Search And Rescue Training?
Search and rescue operations involve finding people who are lost and may be injured, providing them with emergency medical treatment when necessary, and removing them to a safe location. While untrained volunteers can be helpful in these emergencies, most operations really benefit from people who have had some search and rescue training. Some operations are dangerous for the searchers, so advanced search and rescue training is required. Highly specialized search and rescue training is available for professionals in the field. Most programs offer certification, which must be renewed periodically.
