Why I Joined Fire/EMS
From my 2nd birthday visit to a fire station, until the day I was old enough to begin, I wanted nothing more to be a fireman.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
It gives me the opportunity and ability to help people in their greatest moments of need.
Top Issues Facing Responders:
Mental health, PTSD Staffing, Complacancy, Disaster/Mass Casualty preparedness.

Firefighters sitting around a station in a lazy boy watching TV every single shift, documenting that their "training" took place (when it didn't), and by doing so, failing to prepare for the myriad of circumstances they could be facing at a moments notice.

Mornin Ed, you do stand a chance but I believe you need to be a resident to join, depending on how long your thinking of staying you could do an exchange for up to 12 months(i think) with some Fire Brigades. If you let me know how long your thinking of coming for and when and where I'll see if i can help. For the moment I'll ask my Brigades personnel department what our policy is with the whole deal. But first im gonna take on a large beer and kick back infront of the idiot box. Dont play with matches mate!
