Current revision

This page is based on the Critique report template.

Use that template to make similar pages.

Suggestions coming from the 2012-10-02 critique regarding the mock of the same date.

Pincher Creek SAR routinely performs a critique after a Search and Rescue incident in order to learn what should be done differently or the same in the next similar incident. Critiques are not about criticism but rather about learning. They are normally chaired by a Search Manager that was not involved in the incident. The suggestions that are brought forward through the critique process are presented in this report.
