Why do fire trucks respond to medical calls?
Fire trucks are dispatched to the scene of a medical call at the same time as the ambulance. Depending upon the location of the incident, fire trucks are usually closer. Fire crews provide basic and advanced life support and create a well-orchestrated team effort called the incident command system. This is for the protection, safety and well-being of our citizens and guests.
