Abstract
On international level we can find various methods in the field of fire and disaster management interventions. Individual nations are trying to manage the activities related to firefighting, technical rescue, and, in some cases, healthcare on the basis of international trends but individually and at the highest quality possible. In this article, the author intends to present some syntheses of information that have already been published about the differences and some good practices of rescue organisations applying common, basically similar tools by taking an international outlook and studying various countries—including Hungary. The target countries are in Europe: Poland, Germany, the United Kingdom and Italy.
