RICs (Rescue Indicator Cards)

Rescue Indicator Cards (RICs) are tools used in rescue operations to quickly communicate important safety and operational information among team members. They typically contain key details such as rescue status, hazards, or special instructions, often visually represented through colors or symbols for immediate understanding. RICs help ensure coordinated efforts, prevent misunderstandings, and enhance safety by providing a standardized way to relay critical information during complex or high-risk rescue scenarios.
