Shout out to Probationary Firefighter Paramedic Urban Anderson who, last week, unprompted took time to wash an elderly patient’s dishes before she was transported to a hospital. We're proud to see members go above & beyond their call of duty — no matter how big or small the deed.

You know you work for a fire department when you start quoting to others or start hearing things others tell you from the famous “some guy told me” policy manual.

A response today to check a burning flower bed at a residence in @towngfw. The mulch had been ignited and smouldered for hours before discovered after scorching the step & siding. Garden mulch is combustible and can fuel a fire & spread to structures once ignited.

Have an employee who you can always depend on? One who never complains? One who just blends in, keeps their head down, & does a good job without looking for praise or recognition? The next time you work with them, take them aside and let them know how much you appreciate them.
Successful fire service leaders make it a point to learn about themselves and the profession every day. They learn how they fit into the profession and how they can improve their technical and leadership skills. They take the time to learn what makes them tick.

In our continuing results-based accountability journey, @Toronto_Fire is launching new outcome performance measures that assess our ability to contain structure fires to the room of origin. This is a key public fire safety metric. @cityoftoronto
