ALIVE: Training Video For First Responders
At some point in a first responder's career, they are likely to encounter a person with some type of disability who needs assistance. The City of Minneapolis Fire Department has put together a training video which is meant to help first responders know how to help someone who has a disability. Some segments are told from the perspective of people living with disabilities who have had both good and bad experiences when they have called for help in an emergency situation.
