Fire Team Test (Questions & Answers with Verified Explanations)
Terms in this set (26)
Donning an air pack drill scenario "Keep practicing the airpack drill until dinner", is the best answer. It shows
recognition that the firefighter needs more practice with getting his gear on
quickly and smoothly. Being persistent in practicing to overcome any level of
clumsiness and learning to don his gear quickly and smoothly is the highest priority
here.
For crowd control "Ask the woman to help you get the crowd moved back from the child so you
can work.", is the best answer. This answer allows for fastest medical response and
also manages the emotional situation. The woman's presence is acknowledged and
her energies are redirected in a more positive direction. Common sense tells us
that the woman is a strong personality and may be strong enough to influence the
crowd to move and be more cooperative. Also, she and the other bystanders are
upset, first and foremost, because they want the victim to be helped. Involving her
in this effort speeds things up and shows respect for her motivations.

For the lazy coworker who needs to get a bp "Offer to get the blood pressure. Later privately tell the rookie who answered
the phone that he should do more work so you both will look good and be
successful." is the best answer. This question is a measure of team support.
Although the hard working rookie is doing many things to help out, he should also
be willing to help out other members of the team. The only answer that is related
to helping the other rookie be more successful is A.
For the guy who offered to help Answer A, "Say, "Thanks but we have everything under control." Then ask him to
move back.", is the best answer. A key element in this scenario is that the one
offering to help seems to be inebriated. The responders have primary
responsibility to the patient, but should also strive for good public relations. This
answer keeps the inebriated man away from the patient but is respectful and de-
escalating. It is also a quick way to resolve the situation and progress with
providing aid to the patient.
For the fighting couple: "One medic should ask the police to escort the wife away from her husband.", is
the best answer. The outcome that is needed is for the wife and the husband to
stop arguing so that urgent medical assistance can be provided. The police
officers are calmly interviewing the children and are trained in dealing with
disturbances. Since they are present, using them as professional resources to
separate the wife from the husband de-escalates the situation and allows the
medics to provide patient care.
