Our department is considering using tablets on fire ground and for reporting.
Do any of you use iPads?
If so, what model do you use?

Say hey to your VFF.

It's National Volunteer Firefighter Day! - A time to honor .

The dedicated volunteer firefighters in Alabama provide countless hours of services to the citizens and businesses. Volunteers respond to fires, vehicle accidents, medical calls and other emergencies.

National Volunteer Firefighter Day is an opportunity for citizens to say thank you and honor those who are dedicated and use their personal time to protect them. Volunteers are truly unsung heroes that show up in your time of need. Consider stopping by your local to say thank you, donate snacks, water/Gatorade, a meal, etc.

Thank you for your courage, commitment and all you do for your community! You are greatly appreciated! God bless you.

Please slow down and pull over when you see emergent vehicles on a scene.

Yesterday, Theodore Dawes Fire Rescue Engine 4 and a Mobile County EMS ambulance were involved in a motor vehicle accident on I-10 while in the process of operating on a medical call.

While our crews were working the scene, a passing motorist failed to recognize the emergency vehicles and struck Engine 4 and a Mobile County EMS ambulance. Thankfully, none of our firefighters, the Mobile County EMS crew, or the patient they were treating were injured. The driver of the passenger vehicle that struck Engine 4 was transported to USA Medical Center for treatment of her injuries.

While we are extremely thankful everyone is okay, this incident is also an important reminder of why proper roadway incident safety matters.

We especially want to recognize our on-duty crew for following Traffic Incident Management System (TIMS) safety procedures to the letter. Engine 4 was positioned intentionally to provide a protective barrier between approaching traffic and the medical scene. That positioning did exactly what it was supposed to do—the apparatus took the impact instead of our firefighters, the EMS crew, or the patient. Without that protection, the outcome of this incident could have been gravely different.

We train for situations like this because operating on the interstate is one of the most dangerous environments our personnel face. Yesterday was a very real example of why that training, discipline, and attention to procedure matter.

We also want to sincerely thank our neighboring fire departments, Mobile County EMS, fellow first responders, and members of the community who have reached out to check on our personnel and offer their support. The number of calls, messages, and offers of assistance we have received has been overwhelming, and we are incredibly grateful.

Finally, please remember: when you see emergency vehicles operating on the roadway, slow down, move over, and pay attention. There are firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, law enforcement officers, patients, and motorists on the other side of those warning lights.

Engines can be repaired and equipment can be replaced. People cannot.

Stay alert. Slow down. Move over. Help us make sure everyone goes home.

This is what mutual aide and community service is all about.

Over the last couple of days we have found cases of water and Gatorade show up at the door at the station. We greatly appreciate these donations.

The reason they are important to us and we are so grateful is because we CANNOT purchase hydration products with our county ad valorem tax distributions.

Again, thanks to whoever left the donations.

Be careful outside this week.

Do YOU know the difference between Heat Exhaustion and Heat Stroke? The symptoms can vary from person to person, and you may not exhibit all at the same time.
On days like today, when the heat indices are 105-110 degrees and the morning temperatures weren't as cool as typical, the cumulative impacts of the heat can amplify the risk of both heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

Stay hydrated.
Limit time outdoors during the daytime hours if possible.
Use AC - fans alone may not be enough.
Check on the elderly, kids, pets, and anyone who may not have access to adequate cooling.
