Home Safety Surveys
Take
our personnel on a walk through your home to help you identify and
correct potential fire and injury hazards. We'll also work with
you to develop a workable escape plan and test your smoke alarms.
There is no charge for this service. Contact our
community
services office to schedule an appointment. Be sure to include
your physical address and dates/times that would work best for you.

Blood Pressure Checks
If
you're experiencing a medical problem, don't come to the fire station.
If the crews are out of the building on calls or other duties, you won't
get the help you need. Leave the driving to us by calling 911 --
which is the most efficient and quickest way to access an emergency
response. For routine blood pressure checks, we welcome you
to stop by any of our staffed fire stations.
To keep track of your readings, be sure to ask for one of our handy BP
Check Cards. We also offer this service at luncheon meetings of
the Kingston Super Seniors, held on the second Wednesday of each month
at the Kingston Community Center. |

Bike Helmet Fitting
More
than 85% of related head injuries can be prevented with a properly-fit
helmet. We believe so strongly in the benefits of helmets that we
make them available at all of our fire stations. The firefighters, who
purchase the helmets with their own money, accept donations of $7.00 per
bike helmet ($12.00 for skateboard helmets and $20.00 for ski helmets).
To ensure that someone will be available to fit the helmet(s), it's best
to call in advance for an appointment.

services office to schedule yours! |

Life Jackets to
Borrow or Own |
|
Although
adult supervision is the key to preventing childhood drownings,
properly-fit life jackets are also important. To ensure that
everyone is protected, we're happy to lend life jackets for a day, a
weekend or a week. These U.S. Coast Guard approved personal
flotation devices |
