Chapter V of the Light Search And Rescue Operations focuses on planning and executing search and rescue (SAR) operations in light disaster scenarios. It covers search and rescue planning, size-up of the situation, systematic search techniques, rescue techniques like lifting and cribbing, and emphasizes rescuer safety. Key steps include assessing risks, identifying resources, setting priorities, and ensuring rescuer safety through systematic approaches, buddy systems, and proper equipment. Marking and documenting searched areas is crucial for organized and efficient SAR efforts.
