In this fifth and final segment of the North American Rescue Ballistic presentation series, we cover how the NAR Responder Ballistic PPE System has been designed specifically with the body armor design characteristics required to keep first responders safe, without hindering their ability to perform their job functions.
North American Rescue continues with our series on Ballistic Protection for the First Responder with a presentation covering the basics of NIJ Certification. We discuss what this does - and does NOT mean, and provide information to help you make an informed decision on your body armor capability.
Understanding the basics of body armor materials and ballistic protection is critical to making the right choice for your protective equipment. This is part 3 of the Ballistic PPE presentation series from North American Rescue.
North American Rescue is pleased to present the second section of our educational series focused on Ballistic PPE for first responders. This session provides a comprehensive overview of ballistic protection properties and what to look for in a solution for your organization. Understanding the data regarding ballistic threats, maximizing protective coverage, and recognizing the range of motion required to perform your duties will help you make an educated decision for your gear.
The world of EMS and Fire first responders is changing. As we witness a shocking rise in the number of first responders facing violent attacks, the time has come to consider better ways to protect the life and health of medical providers in situations that expose them to risks. This video provides an overview of the case for expanding your definition of "PPE" to include ballistic protection or body armor that has been tailored to provide maximum protection, while still allowing the physical range of motion that medical providers require.
An important consideration for fire and EMS is how to implement body armor policies and procedures. Body armor is becoming standard PPE for many fire and EMS agencies as the working environment becomes more dangerous.
The design of a ballistic vest is crucial to ensure maximum protection while allowing the user to perform their duties. A ballistic vest designed for patient care requires a different approach than a standard law enforcement vest.
