Fire Engines are the primary resource for fires such as bark mulch, batteries or their charging devices, HVAC, machinery, vehicles, buildings and more. They respond to motor vehicle collisions to handle stabilization, extrication, and hazardous materials. Fire Engines respond to hazardous materials events. Fire Engines respond to medical events when ambulances are not available or alongside ambulances to provide additional personnel and equipment for high acuity calls or where extricating the patient requires more than two people.
