PURPOSE:
To establish a guideline defining the new member orientation program.
PROCEDURE:
- The Maitland Fire Rescue Department will require all new members to complete an orientation prior to shift assignment. Orientation will normally be a four week period; however this could be amended at the Fire Chief’s discretion.
- During the orientation period, new members will be issued a recruit manual, review Fire Department SOP’s, City personnel policies, vehicle operations, and FF/EMS competencies, complete right to know, infection control, HIPAA training. All updated SOG’s shall be made available in each Lieutenants office and on the City’s K: Drive for each employee to access.
- New members will also be issued uniforms, bed linens, bunker gear and additional PPE as needed.
- New members are fit tested for HEPA masks and SCBA masks.
- New members tour RDV Sportsplex, Orange County’s Communication Center, both fire stations and City Hall. During this time, members will meet with the Personnel Department, IT and Fire Administration.
- Any competencies or requirements not accomplished during the orientation period are to be completed prior to 6 months of employment. It is the responsibility of each new member to review their recruit manual with their assigned Lieutenant immediately once assigned a shift.
