Operations
The mission of the Operations' division is to help in the prevention of injuries and property damage from fire, accidents, hazardous materials spills/releases, and large-scale calamities.
The division is responsible for evaluating equipment and methods to improve service delivery through interaction with fire equipment manufacturers and other fire departments around the nation. This is critical insofar as having adequate information and knowledge to identify equipment and procedures, which have the potential to save lives, minimize or prevent property losses, and/or increase safety. Another key responsibility of the division is the maintenance of equipment to operate at peak performance. This includes preventive maintenance as well as repair of firefighting equipment, annual apparatus testing against acceptable performance standards, and the annual hose-testing program.
Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
Since its emergence in the early 60s, EMS has become an integral part of hundreds of fire departments in North America. In Pompano Beach, EMS has also been a key component of the fire department's daily activities since 1975. This service provides the residents and visitors of the city with comprehensive pre-hospital care 24 hrs per day, 365 days per year. Our department was one of the original [if not the first] fire departments to provide EMS in the state of Florida.
The division provides health safety courses and advanced training for paramedics, as required by state statutes and regulations, as well as Quality Assurance programs mandated by state statute to measure the effectiveness of the delivery of service.
