Fire, Rescue and Inspection Services


Mission Statement
Within the Village of Hazel Crest, the Department of Fire,
Rescue, and Inspectional Services provides a large number of services
to the residents of the Village as well as the persons who visit our
community. These services impact the quality
of life within the Village and include fire suppression, emergency
medical services, code and inspectional services, fire prevention
programs, public education programs and in-service training. This
organization provides all of these services
with the combined effort of full and part-time employees.
The department
must continue to recruit and maintain both its career and part-time
employees in order to maintain the level of services
the residents have come to expect. These employees must be properly
trained and informed to deal with the variety of issues which face them
daily.
The department
must continue to grow and progress as we move into the twenty-first
century. Hazel Crest has a reputation as a leader and we want the
department to be one of the reasons for that recognition. As always,
this includes providing the best possible services
for all residents in a manner consistent with proper techniques and
care.
The Department of
Fire, Rescue, and Inspectional Services is charged with the
responsibility to save lives and prevent fires along with other equally
important issues. Each day, we strive to meet this obligation through
excellent service to those we serve and
protect.
