Why I Joined Fire/EMS

Was exposed to the fire service by my father who also vollunteered in the same town. Helped out a a big fire as a kid passing out water and moving hose. Been hooked ever since.

Top Issues Facing Responders:

Complaisance, lack of understanding or forethought by the builders of large building, automobiles, and designers of Ambulance bays to meet the needs of emergency responders in times of high stress.
