What are the two types of teams for AADB?

• A. Search Team and Rescue Team
• B. Entry Team and Rescue Team Protective Element Medical (PEM)
• C. Entry Team and Administrative Team
• D. Medical Team and Defensive Team

Answer: (B)

In AADB, operations are organized around two core team types: an Entry Team and a Rescue Team that includes a Protective Element Medical (PEM). The Entry Team takes the lead, breaching and clearing to establish control of the scene. The Rescue Team with PEM follows to locate and extract casualties and provide life-saving medical care, all while staying protected in the hazardous environment. PEM denotes the medical component of the rescue effort, equipped to operate under protection so medics can treat with safety and speed. The other options mix roles that don’t reflect how AADB teams are structured, whereas the combination of an Entry Team and a Rescue Team with a Protective Element Medical best fits the standard setup for rapid entry and casualty care.
