The question then is whether the people who come to the aid of those involved in such misfortunes are highly trained and competent. If Thursday’s training session at the Butte College Public Safety Training Center was any gauge, the public can be assured of the best possible response from these future emergency personnel.
Approximately 300 Butte College students from the Fire Academy, nursing school, paramedics school and emergency medical technician programs came together for an effective and realistic session, demonstrating their skills during spectacularly pleasant weather conditions on the Butte campus.
