A House Fire Example A fire starts in a home. Someone calls 9-1-1. Dispatchers gather information. Roseville and Lake Johanna Fire Departments are alerted. Roseville Engine 631 and Medic 610 with a crew of 5 arrive in 3-4 minutes and begin the size-up. Within 2 minutes, Roseville Fire Chief Officer arrives and establishes an incident command post. Within 8-12 minutes, firefighters who responded from home arrive with a second fire engine and ladder truck. In the same timeframe, Lake Johanna arrives with fire engine and chief officer.
To be effective, a fire department needs to assemble 24-29 trained firefighters on the scene of a house fire in under 10 minutes Rescue team: 3-4 Fire attack team: 3-4 Fire attack back-up line: 3-4 Vehicle operators: 3 Ventilation of hot gases: 3-4 Shut off utilities: 2 Rapid Intervention team: 4 Medical standby team: 2 Incident command: 2
