11 <br />operate as an Incident Management Team member. At the conclusion of their training, <br />their membership with the Minnesota All Hazards Incident Management Team (AHIMT) <br />was accepted. This training, combined with experiences they will obtain from the <br />AHIMT, will continue to enhance the ability of the City of New Brighton to respond to <br />any variety of challenges it may face. <br /> <br />The Police Division completed its annual training days. There are four training days <br />which occur throughout the year and they include the mandatory training for use of force <br />training and EMT/EMR training to maintain licensure. The training days are integrated <br />into the regularly scheduled hours to eliminate overtime costs. These training days <br />included training on Use of Force Updates, Taser refresher training, active shooter <br />training, obstetrics, strokes, communicable diseases, ambulance reviews, and IV starting. <br /> <br />Deputy Fire Chief, Mike Schute, attended the annual MSFCA conference in Rochester. <br /> <br />New Brighton hosted a 5-day Field Training Officer (FTO) certification course in the <br />upper level training room. In exchange for providing the classroom space and facilities, <br />Public Safety was able to send three of our own officers to the course. With the extensive <br />hiring of new police officers and internal promotions/assignments during the past two <br />years, our Police Division was in need of adding some FTOs to our cadre of patrol-level <br />trainers, so this was optimal timing to host the class. <br /> <br />On Wednesday, October 4th, members of the Police and Fire Divisions, along with Allina <br />Health and the North Suburban Haz Mat Team conducted a joint training exercise at <br />Fairview Clinic. The exercise was designed to practice the response to an infectious <br />disease outbreak. <br /> <br />
