Vigili del fuoco al lavoro. Un vigile del fuoco è un soccorritore ampiamente addestrato in vigili del fuoco, principalmente per estinguere incendi pericolosi che minacciano la vita, la proprietà e l'ambiente, nonché per salvare persone e in alcuni casi o giurisdizioni anche animali da situazioni pericolose. I vigili del fuoco maschili sono talvolta indicati colloquialmente con il termine storico pompiere (e, meno comunemente, una vigile del fuoco femminile con il termine pompiere) anche se l'uso di questa terminologia è ufficialmente scoraggiato. L'estinzione degli incendi è ulteriormente suddivisa in competenze che includono: Dimensioni, spegnimento, ventilazione,

A firefighter is a rescuer extensively trained in firefighting, primarily to extinguish hazardous fires that threaten life, property, and the environment as well as to rescue people and in some cases or jurisdictions also animals from dangerous situations. Male firefighters are sometimes referred to colloquially by the historical term fireman (and, less commonly, a female firefighter by the term firewoman) although the use of this terminology is officially discouraged.[1][2] The fire service, also known in some countries as the fire brigade or fire department, is one of the three main emergency services. From urban areas to aboard ships, firefighters have become ubiquitous around the world. The skills required for safe operations are regularly practiced during training evaluations throughout a firefighter's career. Initial firefighting skills are normally taught through local, regional or state-approved fire academies or training courses.[3] Depending on the requirements of a department, additional skills and certifications such as technical rescue and pre-hospital medicine may also be acquired at this time. Firefighters work closely with other emergency response agencies such as the police and emergency medical service. A firefighter's role may overlap with both. Fire investigators or fire marshals investigate the cause of a fire. If the fire was caused by arson or negligence, their work will overlap with law enforcement. Firefighters also frequently provide some degree of emergency medical service, including certifying and working as full-time paramedics from engine, truck, and rescue companies in some systems to initiate advanced life support until ambulance transport arrives. The Firefighting is further broken down into skills which include: size-up, extinguishing, ventilation, search and rescue, salvage, containment, mop up and overhaul.
