Who must be notified at the Command Van upon a command transfer?

When a command transfer occurs, it is essential to ensure that the new incident commander and their team are fully briefed and updated about the ongoing situation. Notifying the Command Van personnel in person is crucial for maintaining effective communication and operational continuity at the scene. The Command Van serves as a centralized hub for incident management, and personnel within it need to be aware of the command structure to provide necessary support, resources, and strategic oversight. This direct communication helps to prevent misunderstandings and ensures that all tactical decisions are aligned with current objectives.

Maintaining this clear line of communication is vital for the safety of both the responders and the public, as the Command Van plays a critical role in coordinating responses and implementing incident strategies.
