It’s #WorkZoneAwarenessWeek. In 2025, MO will see 800–1,000 work zones daily with 10,000+ workers on the roads.

In 2024, 23 died & 90 were seriously hurt in work zone crashes—many due to speeding or distraction.

Slow down. Phone down. Let’s keep everyone safe. 🚧

🔋 Friendly reminder to check your batteries!

Don’t wait for an emergency to find out your detectors aren’t working—ensure they’re fully charged and ready to keep you safe.

We never know the full condition of a patient when we arrive on scene, which is why we prepare for every possible scenario.

Turnout gear is crucial for firefighter safety, but it doesn't last forever. With a 10-year lifespan, it's due for replacement this year.

Constant use and harsh conditions cause it to wear out quickly. We must keep our crews protected with up-to-date, reliable gear.

🔥 A small spark can turn into a big emergency—are you ready?
