In this clip from the Day 1 Opening Ceremony, David Rhodes encourages those in the fire and EMS service to remember they're in the people business...
...and to keep that at the front of their minds at all times.
Congratulations @MrstakesK on receiving the @FireInstructors Instructor of the Year Award this week at #FDIC2023! We are so proud of you and thankful to have you on our team. This is a well deserved tribute for your contributions to the fire service and outstanding leadership.
FDIC was such a great experience. From the great classes to the tribute to Chief Halton to the inspiring speeches by Chief David Rhodes to all the vendors. Was great catching up with friends and meeting so many new ones. Everyone needs to make it to FDIC at some point.
Had the pleasure of sitting down and chatting with the guys from The RIT Nerds podcast and share Ben’s Story. Can take a listen on apple podcast or Spotify.
