Central States Rescue Group

   CSRG Training:

The members of Central States Rescue Group (CSRG) train on a regular basis. We also train with other teams as well as attend trainings through national and Regional training centers. Our members are experience and/or certified in various areas that may including but not limited to Vertical Rope Rescue, Cave Rescue, Wilderness Search and Rescue, Emergency Medical Services, Disaster Medical Operations, Canine (K9) SAR Operations, Canine (K9) First Aid, Firefighting, Communications, Search Management, and the list goes on.  At CSRG we strive to be the best we can and to be prepared for any event. No two rescues are alike no matter how similar, things change constantly, it is a very fluid environment and we have to be prepared to adjust to the events that take place for our own safety as well as your safety. This is one reason training is imperative. The more you train the better prepared you are for whatever situation you may be faced with.

Some of our areas of training include:

  • Cave Rescue

  • Disaster Response

  • Emergency Medical Operations

  • Wilderness Patient Extrication

  • Wilderness SAR

  • Communications

* Training & Certification Requirements *
