Countywide Fireground Rehab and Canteen Service is an all volunteer non-profit unit that offer its services to Fire Fighters, Police &
Emergency Services throughout Passaic County,
New Jersey and nearby communities as situations may arise.
Our goal is to promote and deliver rehabilitation support to the Fire
and Emergency Services by providing our services professionally and efficiently in a timely, proactive manner.
Our purpose is to ensure that the physical and mental condition of personnel operating at the scene of an emergency or a training exercise does not deteriorate to a point that affects the safety and integrity of the operation.
Emergency incident rehab should be applied to all emergency operations and training exercises where strenuous activity or exposure to heat or cold exists.
Funding for our services is through direct
donations and grant applications. Management of the group and
dispatching is performed internally. We are not manned by fire buffs; our members take
their station in emergency response services seriously.
All current members of Countywide have been
certified through the Passaic County Public Safety Academy in
Emergency Incident Rehab and as a stipulation of membership all new
members will be required to do the same. Our members are
encouraged to expand their knowledge of emergency services and are
from time to time presented opportunities to take additional courses
offered by the Academy, FEMA or the American Red Cross.
Countywide Fireground Rehab and Canteen Service will operate under the guidelines
set forth by FEMA, IAFF, & IFSTA.
