That’s why it’s so important to learn the skill of hands-only CPR and feel confident using an automated external defibrillator (or AED). You can help save a life! In this episode, we discuss these basic skills and how they can give people a second chance.
Did you know you the FDNY offers Youth Programs for those interested in learning more about a career with the FDNY? In this episode we talk to EMT Ramla Evans, program manager for the FDNY Exploring Program. The program allows youths in New York City to learn new skills and gain experience with the greatest fire department in the world!
It’s so important to call 9-1-1 as soon as there’s an emergency because the situation can get worse—quickly! Calling 9-1-1 is easy, but do you know what to say once you call for help? Or how dispatchers handle emergency calls? In this episode, we’ll teach you all about this lifesaving topic so you can be FDNYSmart when calling 9-1-1!
In this episode we talk about some burning issues… and by that we mean Burn Awareness and Safety tips! We discuss how to be #FDNYSmart about avoiding all types of burns and what to do if you do get burned.
Happy New Year! Did you know that if there’s a fire in your home. Closing the Door helps keep smoke and fire from spreading? That’s right, closing doors can keep hallways, stairwells and exits clear so everyone remains safe. In this episode, we talk “doors,” closing them when you doze and when escaping a fire.
Season’s Greetings! The holidays are a wonderful—and busy—time of year. We’re sharing tips on how to have a #FDNYSmart holiday season with your family and friends, so you can enjoy all the festivities safely. In this episode, our hosts, Chloe and Danny, go head-to-head in a Fire Safety Cooking Challenge, judged by “celebrity chef and fire safety expert”, Albie Bacon! Assistant Chief Fire Marshal Michael Kavanagh, from the FDNY Bureau of Fire Investigation, shares holiday safety tips and we hear a reprise of our safety carol from the FDNY Carolers!
You may be hearing more and more about “lithium-ion batteries” these days. They’re rechargeable batteries that can be found in electronic devices in every home – like your phone, tablet, electric scooters and bikes. If these batteries aren’t handled properly, they can overheat, catch fire or even explode! In this episode, our special guest, Battery Man, provides important FDNYSmart tips on how to use lithium-ion batteries safely and our student host, Chloe, interviews Lieutenant John Cassidy of HazMat Company 1, a unit specially trained to respond to fires that involve batteries.
School is in session and we’re back too, kicking-off a brand-new season of the “FDNY Smart Podcast for Kids!” just in time for Fire Prevention Week. While not every emergency or fire is preventable, there are steps we can take to help us stay safe if and when an emergency happens. In this episode, Firefighter Danny’s cousin, Manny, performs a fire safety poem and our student host, Chloe, interviews Fire Safety Education officer Captain Michael Kozo. We discuss being prepared, having a plan and how to practice that plan.
