OUR FIRST RESPONSE AREA COVERS 20 SQUARE MILES, WITH ROUGHLY 6,300 PEOPLE AND 2,600 HOMES. OUR IMMEDIATE AREA INCLUDES 4 SCHOOLS, 7 CHURCHES, 2 MOBILE HOME PARKS, 1 RV PARK, AND NUMEROUS BUSINESSES AND COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES. ADDITIONALLY, WE PROVIDE PROTECTION FOR NUMEROURS STATE, COUNTY, BORO AND TOWNSHIP ROADS THAT TREVERSE THE AREA, 1 RAILROAD LINE, AND MANY HIGH PRESSURE GAS AND PROPANE LINES. WITH MANY MUTUAL AID REQUESTS, OUR RESPNSE AREA EXPANDS TO 100 SQUARE MILES. 12,500 PEOPLE, AND 4.500 HOMES. OUR NORMAL RESPONSE TO THESE REQUESTS IS WITHIN 20-25 MINUTES WITH 20 PLUS MEMBERS WHEN AVAILABLE. WE FEEL THAT THIS IS A TESTAMENT TO THE DEPARTMENTS DEDICATION TO SERVING THE PUBLIC, AS WELL AS OUR OWN COMMUNITY. THE NUMBER OF MUTUAL AID RESPONSES IN 2021 WAS 3, AS WELL AS 6 PUBLIC SERVICE CALLS INCLUDING 5 TREES DOWN, AND 3 SEARCH DETAILS. ALSO IN 2021 WE RESPONDED TO 46 FIRE RELATED CALLS, INCLUDING 20 STRUCTURE FIRES, 3 FIELD FIRES, 9 FIRE ALARM ACTIVATIONS, 2 FALSE ALARMS, AND 1 UNKNOWN TYPE FIRE. WE ALSO RESPONDED TO 5 UNKNOWN ODOR INVESTIGATIONS, 5 REPORTS OF WIRES ON FIRE AND 1 PUMP DETAIL.


THE NUMBER OF AMBULANCE RELATED CALLS IN 2021 WAS 403, ATTRIBUTED IN PART TO COVID 19. WE ALSO RESPONDED TO 35 MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS, AND 1 VEHICLE FIRE. WE TRANSPORTED PATIENTS TO WAYNESBURG PA, WASHINGTON PA, AND MORGANTOWN WV.


IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR AMBULANCE SERVICE, WE OFFER FIRST AID AND CPR TRAINING IN OUR FIREHALL, AND ALSO HAVE A SPECIAL ROOM DEDICATED TO EMERGENCY RESPONSE TRAINING. 4 SEPARATE CLASSES WERE HELD IN 2021. ROUTINE PATIENT TRANSFERS ARE NOT HANDLED BY OUR DEPARTMENT, AS IT REMOVES OUR AMBULANCE PROTECTION FROM THE AREA FOR TOO LONG A PERIOD OF TIME. WE WERE ALSO PLACED ON STANDBY FOR ASSISTANCE TO OTHER NEIGHBORING FIRE/AMBULANCE DEPARTMENTS 4 TIMES. WE DO HAVE TRAINED FIRE POLICE THAT PREFORM CROWD AID AND TRAFFIC CONTROL WHEN NEEDED. OF THE 35 MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS IN 2021, THESE MEMBERS WERE INSTRUMENTAL IN KEEPING TRAFFIC FLOWING WHILE ALLOWING OUR MEMBERS TO SAVE LIVES. OUR RESPONSE CREWS FEEL THAT THROUGH THEIR SWIFT AND TRAINED EFFORTS, MANY LIVES WERE SAVED IN 2021, AND RELATED PROBLEMS AVOIDED.
