The department currently has eight EMT's on staff with two more soon to be certified. The department assists the City with code enforcement and provides inspections for businesses, day care centers, home day cares, schools and restaurants. Firefighters have hazardous materials training and are dispatched and respond to every motor vehicle accident within the city limits that has possible injuries. They also respond outside the city limits if requested by EMS or the Sheriff's Department. The department provides needed assistance to area fire departments or communities upon request, and serve as severe weather monitors.
Firefighters take pride in their community and in helping the citizens.
They also conduct on-site training for residents on various topics including fire extinguisher use, fire safety and home safety. Each November, they visit the area schools during Fire Prevention Week.
