CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. - Some local first responders are getting training that  most law enforcement agencies are not even providing yet.
 
Charlotte County deputies take part in what's called "first five" training.

All sheriff's deputies and correctional deputies in Charlotte County will get the training
