Joan talks with Jake about how he decided on a career as a firefighter. He shares his somewhat unique ‘pre-career’ educational experiences including an Associate’s Degree in Fire Science, then the certification from the Fire Academy. They discuss the associated skills/duties of medically related roles such as being an EMT or certified First Responder that Firefighters often take on. Finally Jake provides insight into the advanced and complex systems on board today’s modern firetrucks; and the team dynamics inherent in the high stress – high trust work environment of today’s Firefighter.
