Our team designed a heat-controlled laboratory simulator for the Bomberos of Costa Rica to prepare themselves for the conditions that they will face in their work. This simulator contains exercise equipment and heating controls for use in testing human responses to heat and humidity. Our team also created a readiness survey to determine how mentally prepared a trainee is to begin work as a firefighter, as well as an anxiety scale to be used to monitor a trainee’s condition while in the simulator.
