The Medical Services Division is responsible for all medical operations. In addition to being certified as Firefighters, all operations personnel within the SGFPD serve a dual role and are credentialed at the EMT level or above. Within the department, we have EMTs, Advanced EMTs, and Paramedics.
Every apparatus in the fleet is staffed with personnel and equipment needed to respond to any medical emergency. Additionally, we have ALS Medic Units that provide an additional, higher-trained medical response, along with our engine companies, to medical calls, motor vehicle accidents, rescues, and structure fires.
