This Operations Manual has been prepared to provide instructions and guidance for conducting the Firefighter Pre-Entry Fitness Evaluation (FPFE) . It is to be used when conducting evaluations of Firefighter Applicants for both Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) and Department of National Defence (DND) firefighter positions.  \n2. The FPFE has been researched and developed for the Canadian Forces Fire Marshall (CFFM) . A project led by the Canadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services (CFMWS), Directorate of Fitness, Sports and Health Promotion (DFit) and supported by the University of Alberta.  \n3. The FPFE was designed to ensure that CAF/DND firefighter applicants are physically capable of carrying out their duties. Based upon the research findings, CFMWS/PSP DFit also developed a comprehensive pre-selection program, consisting of a physical fitness evaluation as well as a comprehensive training program based on the performance-related physical fitness requirements for firefighters. For best evaluation results it is recommended that applicants follow the established training program at [https://www.cfmws.com/en/AboutUs/PSP/DFIT/Fitness/Pages/Fire-Fighter.aspx](https://www.cfmws.com/en/AboutUs/PSP/DFIT/Fitness/Pages/Fire-Fighter.aspx).  \n4. It is essential that the evaluation protocols and instructions provided in this Operations Manual be adhered to, so to ensure a safe, valid and reliable administration.  \nDaryl Allard  \nDirector of Fitness, Sports and Health Promotion Personnel Support Programs  \nCanadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services (CFMWS)  \nT A B L E O F C O N T E N T S  \nCHAPTER 1-INTRODUCTION  \nGeneral .....................................................................4  \nRequirements and responsibility ............................4  \nEvaluator responsibilities ........................................5  \nReferences ...............................................................5  \nCHAPTER 2-SET-UP  \nEquipment for the FPFE...........................................6  \nEvaluation Set-Up and Calibration .......................... 7  \nTreadmill Calibration................................................8  \nTask Specific set-up and calibration .......................8  \nTask \\#1 Equipment Carry/Vehicle Extrication .....8  \nTask \\#2 Charged Hose Advance ..................... 10  \nTask \\#3 Weighted Sled Pull ............................. 12  \nTask \\#4 Forcible Entry...................................... 13  \nTask \\#5 Victim Rescue ..................................... 14  \nTask \\#6 Ladder Climb ...................................... 15  \nSafety Procedures .................................................. 16  \nPre-Evaluation Instruction and Responsibilities for Applicants.............................. 17  \nCHAPTER 3 – FPFE  \nPART I: Pre-Evaluation Administration  \nEvaluation Schedule .............................................. 18  \nIntroduction to FPFE .............................................. 18  \nEvaluation Registration .......................................... 18  \nDND 2485–E Section A-Applicant’s Particulars ............................................................. 18  \nDND 2485–E Section B –Health Appraisal Questionnaire ......................................................... 19  \nPeriodic Health Assessment for CAF  \nApplicants Only......................................................20  \nDND 2485–E Section C- Evaluator’s Observations ..........................................................20  \nDND 2485–E Section D – Vital Signs ....................21  \nReferral to a Physician............................................22  \nAdditional Requirements .......................................23  \nFit Heart Rate Monitor ......................................23  \nIssue Turnout Gear ............................................23  \nPART II: Conducting the FPFE  \nInformation Briefing ...............................................25  \nEvaluation Procedures .......................................","cbCaikSy9rpBdaNb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikSy9rpBdaNb","pdf",5979718,85,"English","# Chapter 1 - Introduction\n## General\n## Requirements and responsibility\n## Evaluator responsibilities\n## References\n# Chapter 2 - Set-up\n## Equipment for the FPFE\n## Evaluation Set-Up and Calibration\n## Treadmill Calibration\n## Task Specific set-up and calibration\n## Safety Procedures\n## Pre-Evaluation Instruction and Responsibilities for Applicants\n# Chapter 3 - FPFE\n## Part I: Pre-Evaluation Administration\n## Part II: Conducting the FPFE\n## Section I: Treadmill Component Protocol\n## Section II: Job-Related Tasks Component Protocol\n## Section III: Recovery & Completion of DND 2485-E\n## Reports and Returns","[{\"question\":\"What is the Firefighter Pre-Entry Fitness Evaluation (FPFE) used for?\",\"answer\":\"The FPFE provides instructions and guidance for evaluating Firefighter Applicants to ensure CAF/DND applicants are physically capable of carrying out their duties.\"},{\"question\":\"Who should follow the evaluation protocols, and why?\",\"answer\":\"Evaluators and applicants must adhere to the protocols and instructions to ensure a safe, valid, and reliable administration.\"},{\"question\":\"What major components does the FPFE include?\",\"answer\":\"The evaluation is organized into pre-evaluation administration and conducting the FPFE, including a treadmill component protocol and job-related task protocols such as equipment carry, hose advance, sled pull, forcible entry, victim rescue, and ladder climb.\"}]","Firefighter Pre-Entry Fitness Evaluation (FPFE) Operations Manual - Table of Contents | PDF",1791248832,214]
