The Leoma Fire Department conducted a pre-incident planning exercise at Keestone Resort on Tuesday night, focusing on enhancing preparedness and response capabilities for emergencies at the facility.
During the exercise, firefighters reviewed critical systems within the resort, including fire alarms, sprinkler systems, and elevators. These assessments are essential to ensure that all safety measures are functioning properly and can be relied upon during an actual emergency.
In addition to system reviews, the fire department took measurements to develop hose deployment plans. This step is crucial for determining effective ways to manage water supply during a fire incident, significantly impacting the speed and effectiveness of the response.
Training on apparatus positioning was also a key component of the exercise. Firefighters practiced positioning their equipment for optimal access and efficiency, which is vital for ensuring a quick response when an emergency arises.
As part of their ongoing efforts, the Leoma Fire Department also supplied the facility’s sprinkler system. This provision is intended to bolster the resort’s fire safety measures, ensuring that the sprinkler system is fully operational and ready to assist in the event of a fire.
An official statement from the department emphasized that the pre-plan is part of ongoing efforts to improve preparedness and response capabilities. This proactive approach reflects the department’s commitment to ensuring the safety of both the resort’s guests and staff.
The exercise at Keestone Resort is one of many initiatives undertaken by the Leoma Fire Department to enhance operational readiness. By conducting these pre-incident planning exercises, the department aims to ensure they are well-prepared to handle emergencies effectively.
