line of duty death

A line of duty death (LODD) or serious injury is the most difficult event any Fire, EMS or Law Enforcement agency will have to face. Being unprepared for such an event will define you as a Chief, manager, or leader. It will forever change the way your department operates and affect its ability to recover and continue to serve.

CISM Perspectives offers seminars and expert consulting services for all emergency services to start building a LODD pre-plan, create a comprehensive Emergency Contact Form, and prepare for the many issues and challenges this tragedy will bring upon your agency.
