  1. The term 'RACE' in building emergency response stands for:

    Answer: Rescue, Alarm, Confine, Extinguish

    RACE stands for Rescue, Alarm, Confine, Extinguish — the sequence of actions for responding to a fire or emergency.

  2. A person collapses in the building lobby and is unresponsive. The FLSD should first:

    Answer: Call 911, send someone for an AED, and begin CPR if trained

    The correct sequence is to call 911, retrieve the AED, and begin CPR if trained — these steps can happen simultaneously with proper staff coordination.

  3. During an active shooter drill, the 'Run, Hide, Fight' protocol instructs occupants to fight as a last resort when:

    Answer: Evacuation and hiding are not possible and their life is in imminent danger

    Fighting the shooter is only appropriate as an absolute last resort when evacuation and sheltering are impossible and the occupant's life is in immediate danger.

  4. A bomb threat is received by telephone at the building. The FLSD should:

    Answer: Keep the caller on the line as long as possible, note details, then call NYPD

    The FLSD or staff receiving a bomb threat should keep the caller talking to gather information (location, time, type of bomb), then immediately notify NYPD.

  5. Which agency has primary jurisdiction over medical emergencies in NYC high-rise buildings?

    Answer: FDNY EMS (Emergency Medical Services)

    FDNY EMS has primary jurisdiction over medical emergencies. The FLSD facilitates their response by controlling elevators and providing location information.

  6. After FDNY clears an active shooter or security incident and authorizes re-entry, the FLSD should:

    Answer: Notify all occupants via PA system and document the incident in the fire safety log

    After FDNY authorization, the FLSD should notify occupants via the PA system that re-entry is authorized and document all incident details in the fire safety log as required.
