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.
Our Recruit Trainers go above and beyond in teaching our newest Firefighters proper fire pump, fire hoses and stream operations. Firefighters got a chance to operate our front line Engines, a Brush Breaker and a Tanker, pumping and practicing hose techniques in realistic operational scenarios. Learning how to draft water out of our portable pools is a must when you become a firefighter in Carver. Firefighters also practiced hose packing and deploying techniques, selecting correct nozzles streams and flow pressures, hose rolls and other techniques our new firefighters will need when working fire incidents. Our Training Facility with onsite pressurized hydrants helps take everything to the next level. Great Job TEAM (Photo’s by Future CFD Firefighter, Matt Heath)
Our new Recruit Firefighters are nearing the end of their Recruit Training Program. This past week they demonstrated all their non-firefighter skills at the Training Facility. The group worked another MVA Entrapment scenario, practiced additional maze evolutions, performed another round of search and rescues, and finally some Ladders evolutions. Next up is their Live Fire Practical and Graduation, and then they will transition into Station Training for a 60 day period. (Photo’s by Future CFD Firefighter, Matt Heath)
