We train for the moments that matter. BIFD is constantly training to reduce the time between a 911 dispatch and crews completing a primary search to get an “all clear” during a structure fire. In the fire service, this is known as maintaining an aggressive search culture.

Temperatures are rising—and so are the risks of heat-related illnesses ☀️

Make sure you and your family are prepared by knowing the warning signs and how to act quickly. The hottest part of the day is typically between 3 PM and 6 PM, so take extra precautions during those hours.
