STANDARDIZED REPORTING FORMAT
To assist you in emergency situations we have developed a reporting format that
follows the letters of the word HAND.
| H= | HAVE = What type of emergency do you have? Is it a fire, accident with injury, medical emergency? |
| A= | AT = You are AT _________________? |
| N= | NEED = What assistance do you NEED? Fire truck, Police Officer, Ambulance? |
| D= | DETAILS= What DETAILS will help responders? DETAILS
are those things that the responders need to know BEFORE they arrive on scene. For
instance, is there a fire or fuel or chemical spill, are there fumes, are there several
victims, is there a hazard they need to prepare for in advance? If there is a Hazardous
Material Placard on a vehicle involved in an accident, the number tells the responders
what material they will have to deal with, however DO NOT APPROACH VEHICLES THAT DISPLAY HAZARDOUS MATERIAL PLACARDS. If you can't see it from your location, don't go closer, just tell the dispatcher that there is a "HAZ-MAT PLACARD". |
H - "I HAVE A _____________"
A - "AT ___________________________"
N -" I NEED (Fire Dept., Police Officer, Ambulance)"
D - (DETAILS) ________________________
Remember to keep your transmissions BRIEF to give responders an opportunity to ask
vital questions
