Fire brigade Waidhofen trains 12 hours for an emergency!

On May 24, 2025, a comprehensive 12-hour exercise of the fire brigade took place in the fire station in Waidhofen an der Thaya, Lower Austria. Under the direction of Kdt. Christian Bartl and the training team, consisting of Tobias Diesner and Alexander Kaltenböck, the exercise started at 10 a.m. A total of 24 members of the Waidhofen/Thaya fire brigade took part. The event was supported by the Altwaidhofen fire brigade.

The exercise was made up of several program items that aimed at preparing the emergency services for different emergency scenarios. At the beginning there was a registry control and an explanation of the practice sequence. The complete equipment on the emergency vehicles was then checked and tested. These exams are essential to ensure that the firefighters are optimally equipped in an emergency. As explained [fireguide-blichtlicht.at] (https://www.fireguide-blütlicht.at/index.php/heehenrettung-be- der-Feuerwehr-gangen-technik-ausbildung/), special knowledge and skills for rescue rescue are of great importance.

Another focus was on the implementation of exercises, including a hall fire and special operational exercise scenarios at the Husky company and the company NTD Witzmann, which were completed with a dinner together. Teamwork and camaraderie are essential in fire work and were particularly promoted during these exercises.

at 10 p.m. the exercise ended, which not only served as a valuable training, but also strengthened the cohesion between the various fire brigades. The fire brigade Waidhofen/Thaya thanked the Altwaidhofen fire brigade for the excellent cooperation and the lived team spirit.

Such exercises are an expression of a professional training approach that also targets the requirements for altitude rescue. As reports Crossiety.App, such exercises are of crucial importance not only for physical fitness, but also for the psychological resilience of the firefighters. The rescuers are prepared for an emergency through realistic scenarios, such as saving slackliners from difficult situations

Overall, the recent activities of the fire departments of Waidhofen on the Thaya and Altwaidhofen show how important continuous training and practical exercises are in order to be able to act quickly and effectively in an emergency.
