Join our Team to help the community
Fairview Fire & Rescue welcomes all members of the community with a heart to serve. Your opportunity to help the community is not limited to actively getting involved in firefighting, rescue or EMS operations. We are in need of people to help with numerous other functions; in order to keep our apparatus on the road and our people working in the field, there are many needed working behind the scenes as well. We have several members whose sole desire is to assist the department without running calls providing a variety of administrative and other functions around the stations such as building maintenance and upkeep, records keeping, bookkeeping, providing food and comfort for our personnel when busy working at scenes of emergencies.
For those interested in participating in roles of emergency providers/first responders there is no specialized qualifications needed. If you do not have any prior experience we will train you! Fairview Fire & Rescue provides Fire, Rescue and EMS services. We are always in need for those interested in becoming firefighters, rescue technicians and Emergency Medical Technicians and Emergency Medical Responders as well as needing people to operate the vehicles to and from or at the scenes of incidents. If someone is only interested in specific functions, we are happy to have you, you’re as important as those interested in doing it all.
Stop by the station and check us out and talk to some of our people. We have weekly training drills Wednesday nights at 7 PM at our headquarters at 7190 West Ridge Rd, Fairview, except for the 2nd Wednesday of the month which is our monthly meeting night. We invite all interested in helping the community in a variety of ways to come out and talk.
