🚒 SAFETY STAND DOWN 2026 – DAY 5: EVALUATION 🚒

Today's focus is on measuring what matters.

You can't improve what you don't evaluate. Regular assessments help firefighters understand their current fitness level, identify opportunities for growth, and establish realistic goals for improvement.

Today's resources encourage:
📊 Annual medical evaluations
📊 Fitness assessments
📊 Tracking health and wellness trends
📊 Identifying personal risk factors

Evaluation is not about passing or failing—it's about gaining insight and creating a roadmap for success.

Take time today to assess your current status and identify one area where you can improve. Find an Evaluation Guide here:https://safetystanddown.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/SSD-2026-Day5-Evaluation-module.pdf
