Fighting The Dragon

While most are sleeping in the wee hours of early morning, others are battling the dragon. The Anaheim Fire Department responded to a commercial structure fire with reports of heavy smoke and fire showing. When the first engine went on scene, a second alarm was immediately requested.

Firefighters quickly deployed interior lines and found heavy fire in the second story. Due to the heavy fire load on the second story and problems with access & egress, the fire grew in intensity forcing crews to change to a defensive operation.

With the master streams from Truck 1 and Truck 2, the fire was extinguished with no damage to adjoining properties. The dragon was smote and no firefighters were hurt.

IEOC (Now V.I.M.S.) - Patient Tracking

During large incidents, man-made or natural disasters, it is critical to incident managers to track both first responders and patients that are part of the incident.

Through the use of RFID technology & a portable mesh network, responders can now deploy a system and triage patients using VerdaSee Solutions patented system. Test have shown that triage times are shorter because information is instantly processed and displayed to the incident commanders computers so that all managing personnel can see the injuries and triage status for every patient. As patients get triaged, the incident commander can correctly allocate and assign resources based on live data. No waiting for runners with a mess of triage tags, just a simple screen to look at.

The system is affordable and easy to use. For more information, please contact VerdaSee Solutions Partner Denny Munson
