Safety Solutions Expands West Coast Operations in Florida, 
Fort Myers Branch is Ready to Serve Your Needs.

Safety Solutions began training Florida’s west coast emergency responders in the early nineties when fire department Urban Search and Rescue Teams across Florida were nothing more than a dream. Chief Ken Craft had the forward thinking begin to prepare the Fort Myers Beach Fire Department for many of the hazards we often encounter today.  Safety Solutions assisted by providing cutting edge, hands on, emergency response training in the areas of Confined Space Rescue, Trench Rescue, and Structural Collapse Rescue. 

Safety Solutions, Inc. began as a one-person regulatory and emergency response-training agency. Today Safety Solutions is the acknowledged leader in providing FEMA equivalent collapse rescue training, emergency response, technology assessment, and exercises worldwide.  Our customers and clients number more than 14,000—including many of the Fortune 500 companies—representing a wide range of industries, including transportation, distribution, manufacturing, construction, emergency response, military, and more. 

Safety Solutions is a company based on the principles of hard work, integrity, and dedication. Our reputation has been built on our promise to provide superior customer service. As a part of our steadfast commitment to you, we remain abreast of new trends and technology.  Safety Solutions has a staff of over 200 subject matter experts with regards to emergency response, instructional design, training, hazard mitigation, chemistry, safety engineering, laws and standards, technology, industrial hygiene, as well as many other fields.  This cadre of SUSAR and FEMA Approved Instructors allows for subject matter experts to assist with many different roles as they apply to the delivering and executing training programs worldwide. 

As a direct result, Safety Solutions Inc. is proud to announce the grand opening of its Florida - West Coast branch located in beautiful Naples, Florida. This facility will allow us to bring high quality training to the Fire Departments on the West Coast of Florida reaching from Tampa south to Golden Gate.

Safety Solutions has released a west coast training schedule that will appeal to the fire and rescue professionals working within this region.
