🚑 Training Highlight – Working Together for Better Patient Care

Tonight members of the Adams Township Volunteer Fire Department participated in a valuable training opportunity alongside our partners from Decatur County EMS.

A representative from Decatur County EMS brought a medic unit to the station and provided our volunteers with a detailed tour of the ambulance, including the equipment carried on board and where it is located. This hands-on training helps our firefighters better understand what tools paramedics and EMTs rely on during medical emergencies.

By becoming familiar with the layout of the medic unit and its equipment, our members are better prepared to assist EMS crews on scene—whether that means quickly retrieving equipment, helping set up for patient care, or supporting paramedics during critical moments.

We appreciate Decatur County EMS taking the time to work with our department. Trainings like this strengthen the teamwork between our agencies and ultimately help us provide faster, more effective care to the citizens we serve.

Strong partnerships make stronger emergency response. 🚒🚑

The Adams Township Volunteer Fire Department is pleased to announce that we have received three (3) automated external defibrillators (AEDs) through a grant awarded by the Indiana Department of Homeland Security.

These AEDs will significantly enhance our ability to provide rapid, life-saving care during cardiac emergencies. Early defibrillation is a critical factor in improving survival rates for individuals experiencing sudden cardiac arrest, and the addition of these devices will strengthen emergency medical response capabilities within our community.

The newly acquired AEDs will be strategically placed in service to ensure accessibility during emergency responses. In addition, our existing AED will be relocated to the community room of the fire station, where it will be readily available for use during public events, meetings, or in the event of a medical emergency occurring within the facility.

The Adams Township Volunteer Fire Department is grateful for this grant support, which directly contributes to the safety and well-being of the residents and visitors we serve. Investments such as this allow our department to continue providing timely, professional, and effective emergency services to our community.

– Call for Service

November 15, 2025

On Saturday, November 15, 2025, the Adams Township Volunteer Fire Department (ATVFD) was dispatched at 16:26 hours following a request for mutual aid from Shelby County fire units. The request was for the response of a Tanker to assist with a reported field fire in the area of the 5900 block of S County Road 800 E in Shelby County.

Tanker 155 responded from the station at 16:30 hours with two firefighters on board. While enroute, Shelby County units on scene advised that the fire had been extinguished and no longer required additional resources. At 16:37 hours, approximately one mile from the incident location, ATVFD units were disregarded.

Tanker 155 returned to the station without incident. No injuries or hazards were reported.

The Adams Township Volunteer Fire Department remains committed to providing rapid, professional response to all calls for service, both within our community and when assisting neighboring agencies.

Today the ATVFD had the privilege of helping out at the annual Santa’s Heroes event here in Decatur County and as always it was a great time! Thank you to all the event organizers and all the volunteers that participated!
