The fire officer is responsible for managing a work unit within the
fire department. When we think about the duties of a fire officer, the
most prominent vision is leading a team of fire fighters into a
challenging emergency situation. In reality, much of what a fire
officer does during a normal workday consists of routine____ related

In a recent survey, chief officers working in cities and large counties
responded to an e-mail request to "list the most important tasks
you want a new fire officer to do well." This resulted in a list of four
basic tasks that they consider vital:
beginning of shift report, ____, decision making, and ____.

Fire officers should provide a prompt and accurate report at the
start of the workday . This report is provided from each work
location to the battalion or district chief within the first ____ of the
reporting time. The format of the report may be electronic, paper, or
verbal. Some departments use sophisticated online staffing
systems, such as TeleStaff, that provide real-time scheduling that
conforms to departmental operational requirements. The chiefs rely
on this information to make staffing adjustments at the beginning of
the shift. An accurate report is needed to ensure that adequate
staffing and equipment are in place and ready for the balance of the
shift.

The ____ chief moves available staff to cover the vacancies noted on
the beginning of shift reports, and any vacancies that remain have
to be covered by fire fighters working overtime.

In addition, the beginning of shift report notes the ____ and ____of all
of the apparatus or rolling stock, such as a reserve pumper that has
been loaned to another station or an ambulance at the shop. Finally,
the report provides the chief with any "must know" information that
will require immediate attention.

, The second most important issue noted by the administrative fire
officers in the previously mentioned survey was that the new
supervising fire officer must ____. Some types of information must be
passed up the chain of command quickly. For example, all injury and
infectious disease exposure reports must be processed without
delay. The designated infection control officer must be informed
immediately so that he or she can get patient information while it
can still be easily obtained. The same priority applies to any
information the chief needs to know about when it is current,
particularly before someone at a higher level calls to ask about the
issue. Many chiefs call this the "____" rule.

notifications
no surprises
The third and fourth issues cited by the administrative fire officers—
decision making and problem solving— are of equal importance.
Some chiefs complain that new supervising fire officers hesitate to
make decisions. They seem to want the chief to make the hard
decisions and to enforce unpopular rules. Chiefs typically want new
officers to run their companies and make the decisions that are
within their scope of responsibility. Chiefs are available for
consultation, but they expect their officers to run the fire stations.

Learning. Kindle Edition. - answer
Fire officers should not complain about problems without proposing
any solutions; they need to think through problems and contribute
to solutions. The most valuable proposals from officers would
consider the ____ of how a possible solution would affect the rest of
the department
