McGrail | High-Rise and Standpipe Fire Operations

Chief Dave McGrail, Firefighting Operations In High-Rise and Standpipe-Equipped Buildings

Click Photo to Purchase Textbook

Chief McGrail's presentation establishes a proper firefighting mindset and promotes maintaining preparedness for the extreme physical and mental demands of firefighting operations in high-rise and standpipe-equipped buildings. Armed with firefighting weapons that would be much more appropriate at a car fire, far too many fire departments are on a collision course with disaster and tragedy, should they encounter a serious high-rise fire.

District Chief McGrail draws from his 25 years of experience, along with lessons learned from many other fire service professionals, to provide a foundation for success and safety during high-rise and standpipe operations. The words "Everyone Comes Home" are just words. The actions necessary to ensure that everyone does come home are based on a lifelong commitment to excellence and the consistent application of good fireground habits.

More about Chief Dave McGrail

Dave McGrail is a 36-year veteran of the fire service and an Assistant Chief with the Denver Fire Department. He instructs internationally on a wide range of fire service topics, specializing in high-rise firefighting operations.

He also holds two Bachelor of Science Degrees, one in Human Resource Management, and the other in Fire Service Administration.

Attendees will be introduced to the 8 essential steps they will need to take in order to reach their peak performance as individuals and team leaders.

More about Chief Frank Viscuso
