Galway is looking for an Assistant Civil Defence Officer. Interested? Check out galway.ie/en/services/mo… Deadline for applicants is 9 May 2024
On Thursday night Cork West Civil Defence conducted a Missing Person Search Training Exercise. Skills practiced were: Missing Person Search Response; Communications; Swiftwater & Flood First Response; Water Awareness; Rescue; and Boating.
Drone pilots trained last night in poor weather and low vis using split screen with thermal camera capabilities. Using a dummy, warmed with some hot water bottles, the pilots searched for, and located the dummy. This is an invaluable resource when searching for a Missing Person.
Tánaiste and Minister for Defence, Micheál Martin @MichealMartinTD welcomes launch of pilot programme to raise the standard of medical cover that Civil Defence volunteers provide to paramedic level. @CivilDefenceIRL #kilkenny #laois #wexford For more: gov.ie/en/press-relea…
Tonight’s training involved: TUSLA Introduction to Children First recertifications; Communications Training & Driver Refresher Training in the Ambulance, 4x4 jeeps and our All Terrain Vehicle.
Tonight our volunteers practiced rescue skills and knots. Great to work on some practical skills and have a bit of fun through learning.
Thanks to our volunteers and our colleagues in Cork North and East Civil Defence who provided medical cover today at the West Cork Rally.
