As well as being prepared to work around the water and undertake bank based and shallow water wading rescues, one of the main roles of a First Responder is to support the teams of Swiftwater Rescue Technicians at an incident. To enable this, a first responder will have skills in basic boat handling, basic rope work, working in shallow water, and the ability to self rescue.
