Answer 1

__________#€¥___________

The Fire Rescue Section makes up the largest portion of the agency and remains the bread and butter of the fire service. Winter Park operates on a three-shift system with each working 24-hours on-duty followed by 48 hours off-duty. Each shift is comprised of 23 firefighters who respond from three fire stations. These stations are located strategically located throughout our city to help us provide the closest possible response to any reported incident.Our firefighters operate three Engine Companies, One Truck Company, Two ALS transport Rescue Companies, EMS Supervisor, and Battalion Chief. All units are capable of delivering advanced life support medical care and our Rescue units transport an average of 1800 patients annually.

The SOC is accepted every five years by Resolution of the City Commission so that these very detailed, life-saving decisions can be made based on industry best practices and quantified anticipated outcomes and not on emotion. Every aspect of response is assessed and benchmarked against what are considered to be the industry’s highest performance measurements. The Quarterly SOC Compliance Report can be found by clicking here. Each baseline of current performance is measured against the industry benchmarks helping the city define specific goals and objectives for the agency.
