BFD relies upon a variety of volunteers to support our firefighters at fire scenes. Our scene support roles are great for those who are young at heart, but no longer able to serve in a firefighter's role.

Brighton Fire Department is not just comprised of firefighters! When there's an emergency, smart minds, cool heads, and ready hands are needed to perform a variety of non-firefighting tasks on the incident scene and back at the firehouse.

Whether it is your interest or age that may preclude you from serving as a firefighter, BFD would love to consider you for service to the community as one of our scene support members. This role could involve the following:

First response medical services

Driving apparatus

Tool & Equipment maintenance,

Cleaning up at emergency scenes

Preparation/delivering of food or supplies at extended-duration incidents

Setting-up and breaking-down training events

REQUIREMENTS

Driver's License Needed

Background Check

Orientation or Training

Typically one evening per week

Increased flexibility in time commitments depending upon past experience
