By Dr Richard Bruce Gasaway and Dr. Richard Bruce Gasaway

Flawed situational awareness is a leading contributing factor to first responder near-miss and casualty events. Yet, sadly, most first responders know very little about situational awareness - what it is, how to develop it, what erodes it and how to regain it once it has been eroded. This book - the second in a series - discusses the challenges first responders face while trying to develop and maintain situational awareness while making decisions in high-risk, high consequence, time compressed, rapidly changing environments, including: Stress, Communications, Vigilance, Tunnel Vision, Auditory Exclusion, Information Overload, Time Distortion, Bad Habits, Technology, Peer Pressure, Size-up, Noise, Mindset, Freelancing, Accountability, And more.
