EFFECTIVE PUBLIC SAFETY SOLUTIONS

WHEN THE JOB IS INHERENTLY DANGEROUS.

The Reverend, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. taught that, “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

Emergency services personnel face numerous challenges and significant risks in performing their duty. These risks highlight the need for public and political support, organizational efficiency, effective leadership, dedicated staff, ongoing training, and proper equipment to protect emergency service workers and maintain their ability to respond effectively.

In many countries, emergency services are held in very high esteem—so much so they are consistently identified as one of the most respected public service professions. This respect is based on public trust, which in turn is based on values: the effective performance of duty, professional ethics and personal and organizational morality.

Targhee Fire is committed to the principle that emergency services is an honorable calling, grounded in concern for human welfare and mutual respect and trust between responders and the citizens they serve.
