Northumberland County's Fire & Rescue Firewire

Northumberland County's Fire & Rescue Firewire The Fire Service is a noble calling, one which is founded on mutual respect and trust between firefighters and the citizens they serve.

We are here to provide the most accurate, up to date information for the Safety of the Public by a Team of Professional Volunteers Who Care. To ensure the continuing integrity of the Fire Service, the highest standards of ethical conduct must be maintained at all times. We need to accept this ethics challenge and be truly willing to maintain a culture that is consistent with the expectations outli

ned. By doing so, we can create a legacy that validates and sustains the distinguished Fire Service institution, and at the same time ensure that we leave the Fire Service in better condition than when we arrived. A fire department (American English) or fire brigade (British English), also known as a fire protection district, fire authority, or simply fire service is a public or private organization that provides predominantly emergency firefighting and fire protection services for a specific geographic area, which is typically a municipality, county, state, or special district. In the United States a fire brigade is the private firefighting organization of a company or enterprise, operated under rules from OSHA. A fire department usually contains one or more fire stations within its boundaries, and may be staffed by career firefighters, volunteer firefighters, or a combination thereof (referred to as a combination department). A fire department may also provide fire protection or fire prevention services, whereby firefighters visit homes and give fire safety advice and fit smoke alarms for members of the public. In many countries fire protection or prevention is seen as an important role for the fire service, as preventing a fire from occurring in the first place can save lives and property. Fire departments are organized in a system of administration, services, training, and operations; for example:

Administration is responsible for supervision, budgets, policy, and human resources. Service offers protection, safety, and education to the public. Training prepares skilled people with the knowledge to perform their duties. Operations performs the tasks to successfully save the public from harm. A fire service is normally set up where it can have fire stations and sophisticated fire engines strategically deployed throughout the area it serves, so that dispatchers can send fire engines, fire trucks, or ambulances from the fire stations closest to the incident. Larger departments have branches within themselves to increase efficiency, composed of volunteers, support, and research. Volunteers give advantages to the department in a state of emergency. Support organizing the resources within and outside of the department. Research is to give advantages in new technologies for the department. Jurisdiction

A fire department's jurisdiction is organized by the governmental body that controls the department, although there are private fire services as well. This comes from a municipality, county, prefecture, state, province, or nation type of government. The most common type of government control is at the municipality level. The jurisdiction size and organisation would be set up by a department or the government in charge of these duties. This deals with the placement of fire stations, equipment, and personnel within the area of control. Fire departments periodically survey their jurisdiction areas and use the data for redeploying proper coverage. This data comes from travel time, range from station, and/or a population survey. This brings equal service to the entire community and gives the department efficient places to launch operations.
