Unfortunately, many times, change is a reaction to a tragedy. And this one hits close to home. Our sympathies are with our neighbors to the southeast who had members injured and to the family of the person who lost their life. Adequate staffing for any and all emergencies should not be an option, it should be a requirement.

In the wake of a deadly house fire Wednesday in Champion Township, the fire chief there is stressing the need for adequate staffing.

Congratulations goes out to Twinsburg Fire!

Increasing their three shifts from 10 firefighters to 11 immediately, with a plan already established to go up to 12 firefighters per shift by the end of this year!

That is incredible staffing!

Many NE Ohio departments are increasing their full-time staff as the part-time firefighter staffing shortage that started in 2020 is still occurring today.

Congratulations to Cuyahoga Falls Firefighters adding 6 additional firefighters! More staff = better service delivery! G...

"An EMS system is not something you can underfund, then go back and fix later. Upfront investment is needed to allow for good outcomes later."

🚨🚨🚨 WE NEED YOUR HELP! PLEASE WRITE THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL: 🚨🚨🚨

Commissioner Wheeler requested 315 EMS positions in the 2025 budget. Mayor Bibb’s administration has given him only 304. We encourage everyone to email the Mayor and City Council members and encourage them to increase the EMS headcount in the 2025 budget by 11 additional positions.

Note that EMS is poised to recover more through EMS billing in 2025 than ever before. By doubling the EMS rates and bringing in a new billing company, the City has already brought in over $4 million since Jan 1st 2025 and is on pace to far exceed their estimated revenue.

CARE believes that EMS revenue should be reinvested back into EMS, rather than going into the general fund to be used for other projects, such as a recent $20 million subsidy for the Gateway stadiums.

Even if you are not a resident, we still encourage your active participation. You are still impacted if you work here, drive through the City, or if you simply come into the City limits to enjoy the Playhouse, stadiums, museums, and other amenities. πŸŒƒ
