In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we at ATFD have instituted scores of emergency procedures from limiting who is allowed into our station to detailed protocols for disinfecting ambulances & fire apparatus, equipment, and our facility throughout the day and night. Our staff and volunteers are continuing to provide top quality life-saving services to everyone in our community, even though such care may put themselves at risk. Our Fire & EMS Providers are being screened at the beginning of each shift for any fever, complaints, and travel history.
During this unprecedented time our already-tight budget is being stretched to the limit by the additional costs we must incur, from increased staffing, to protective gear, cleaning supplies, and disinfecting equipment. Please consider extending your support to the ATFD and our dedicated first-responders who are committed to helping our communities stay safe during this crisis.

This doesn’t even make sense. How did they even have an accident? No one but essential people should be out - which means a fraction of people are on the road. Unless they were essential, they put the emergency providers at risk. 😷

Thank you ATFD! 🚒🚑
