We provide a range of services to residents and visitors in the Town of Georgina. These include fire suppression, medical aid response, motor vehicle accident response, hazardous material response, ice/water rescue response and fire prevention/public education.
We also provide public education, enforcement of the Ontario Fire Code and investigate causes of fires. Our services and mandate are outlined in our Establishing and Regulating By-Law.
Our department runs as a composite department with three fire stations that provide 24-7 protection to our residents.
Plan Your Escape
If a fire occurred in your home tonight, would your family get out safety? You may have only seconds to safely escape your home. Create and practise a home fire escape plan with everyone in your household using the following tips.
- Discuss with everyone in your home how each person will get out in a fire.
- Know two ways out of each room, if possible
- Determine who’s going to help young children, older adults, people with disabilities or anyone else who needs help escaping
- Choose a meeting place outside your home
- Practise your plan
- In the event of a real fire call 9-1-1 from outside the home
- Get out, Stay out. Never re-enter a burning building
- Test your smoke alarms every month
Every second counts. Fire and smoke travel quickly. Be ready and be outside when the firefighters arrive.
