Welcome Dale, hopefully you can bring back some good ideas! #FireEMS https://t.co/GpTDui4zmN

This morning, whilst attending to a patient, one of our ambulance crews noticed smoke coming from a neighbouring house in Tallaght. The crew immediately ran to the house and rescued a person from one of the rooms. Fire crews from Tallaght and Dolphin's Barn extinguished the fire.

😬 That might be down to our little slagging the other day!!!

Maybe you’d like to drop into a station for a look around and check out the ambulances & trucks.

Might give you inspiration for the next book.

Let’s see if @DubFireBrigade can arrange?

The kettle will be on! https://t.co/bzXpZmfEpw

Today, our Chief Fire Officer, Patrick Fleming, retired. A special off-going parade was held to mark this occasion. Pat has served as our Chief for 6 years, and has spent 15 years of his 40 year career with DFB. We wish him well in the next chapter of his life.

Earlier in West Dublin, one of our crews identified a STEMI heart attack and transported the patient directly to a PPCI centre. Time of onset to surgical intervention < 60 minutes.

Always take chest pain seriously, know the signs:

This weekend we said goodbye to Mick Mulligan as he retires from Phibsborough fire station. A/3rd Officer Paul O'Reilly made a presentation to Mick in the presence of his colleagues on D Watch. Thanks Mick, you'll be missed 👋🏼 🚒🚑

To help with the #watershortage situation we are restricting routine washing of our fleet. Two of our stations utilise stored rain water for the filling of the fire engine's tanks.

This is the benefit of having DFB Fire/EMS model preserved for the people of Dublin. Large number of resources on scene in minutes. There are always over 100 paramedics/Advanced paramedics on duty, strategically placed around the city. Hoping for a quick recovery for all involved https://t.co/9z7CYWvgsu

[Dublin Fire Brigade @DubFireBrigade]

All our resources have left the scene of the #Clondalkin RTC. In total 4 Fire, 1 Rescue Tender, 1 District Officer, 4 DFB ambulances and our Advanced Paramedic vehicle attended. A number of resources from @AmbulanceNAS and @GardaTraffic attended. Approx 13 people treated. https://t.co/qS58h9c1Ur
