October is Fire Prevention Month, a time when fire departments across the country remind their communities to check smoke alarms, practice escape plans, and take steps to prevent fires. It's also a good opportunity to review how your own department is protected.
Volunteer fire and EMS departments carry enormous responsibility. You protect lives. You manage apparatus worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. You steward public funds. You rely on volunteers who show up at 2 a.m. when the community calls.
