Regular exercise can help and is recommended as one of the first options for treating and preventing the chronic conditions afflicting too many fire fighters. However, education and mandated fitness programs are not the answer. Emerging evidence highlights the need for behavioral solutions to improve the physical activity habits of fire fighters. The IAFF is leading an innovative charge to improve fire fighter health and wellness with the FIT TO THRIVE program. This interactive full-day workshop includes a series of complementary modules that address the unique implementation needs of the fire service (creating a comprehensive plan, becoming an influential leader, assessment considerations, self-care). Attendees will be provided with a series of practical resources to assist with their own F2T program implementation. (8 F2T CEC)

ABLS is a course designed to provide first responders (fire fighters, paramedics, EMTs), with the ability to assess and stabilize patients with burn injuries during the first critical hours following injury and to identify patients requiring transfer to a burn center. ABLS programs support emergency preparedness needs for disaster management. The quality of care during the first hours after a burn injury has a major impact on long-term outcome; however, most initial burn care is provided outside of the burn center environment.
