Report

Supporting our Emergency Services heroes!
The Emergency Services Report and Nursing edition focus on the issues that matter to you and your family everyday as well as paying homage to all the organisations that are there to help in times of emergency.

Welcome to
Emergency Services Report

We all hear about the big emergencies, fires, floods, and cyclones, but the little emergencies along with the people who devote their time to help their community seem to get lost in the sensationalism of today's journalism. The Emergency Services Report focuses on the emergencies that matter to you and your neighbour everyday, as well as paying homage to all the organisations that are there to combat emergencies, large and small. The “Emergency Services Report” has been created to assist preservation of life in any situation by offering useful tips and information. Simple, yet essential skills and knowledge can preserve life, protect a casualty and possibly prevent a potential life threatening accident - knowledge which no parent, partner, friend or workmate can do without.

Over our many years of publishing Emergency Services Report we have examined a wide variety of topics such as natural disasters, devastating bushfires, the Police Air Wing, the dangers of being a Paramedic, gun laws, Police dogs, PTSD among emergency services personnel and much more.

Inside our Current Edition
SPECIAL FEATURE EDITION - ARIAL FIREFIGHTING IN AUSTRALIA

The current edition of Emergency Services Report is a Special Feature on 'Arial Firefighting in Australia'. The development of aerial firefighting and forestry in Australia ran in parallel with the rapid improvements in aircraft technology over the last century. As more advanced and capable aircraft became available firefighters and foresters quickly sought opportunities to utilise and adapt them. Aircraft have three main advantages over ground resources: speed, access, and observation. Aircraft have been used for a wide range of tasks including reconnaissance, firebombing, crew transport, aerial ignition, back burning, gathering infrared imagery as well as operational forestry tasks like aerial photography and surveys. We hope you enjoy our 20th edition.
