The Carver Fire Department is located in Southeastern Massachusetts.
We proudly protect 11,368 people living in an area of 39.58 square miles. We operate out of three stations that protect a primarily residential/agricultural area. Our Department is an ISO 2/2Y-rated Public Department whose 85 members are on a paid on-call status.
CFD Fire Companies responded to a motorcycle accident in the powerline area off of South Meadow Road. Due to the remote area, our Forestry UTVs 23 and 24 responded to assist Carver EMS and PD with transporting the patient to an awaiting ambulance. A Med Flight Landing Zone (LZ #6) was established by C3, Engines 1 and 2, and Breaker 29 at our Fire Headquarters, with the patient transported by helicopter to a Boston Hospital.
Recruit Training Class #11 was Ladders and Ventilation (Practical). During this practical course our new Firefighters are taught different ladder raises and carries by our experienced group of Recruit Trainers. The class is then split into two groups, with half practicing ladders and the other half concentrating on hydraulic, mechanical, and roof ventilation using our training building and one of the roof-cut props (Blizzard snow storm did help here…) What a tremendous value to being able to have our new Firefighters practice real life scenarios under one roof in our own backyard.
