Technical Rescue Team (TRT) certified personnel are emergency medical response firefighters who are specially trained in the treatment and removal of victims trapped in complex or confined spaces, such as collapsed structures and vehicles with extreme collision damage. All MDFR frontline units carry basic TRT equipment, such as the Jaws of Life and other hydraulic rescue tools, but several units strategically located throughout Miami-Dade are specially designated TRT units, outfitted with highly specialized technical rescue equipment and staffed with crew members certified in technical rescue response.
