The department operates from 4 stations with 3 Engine companies, 2 Truck companies, 1 Rescue Squad, 4 Advance Life Support (ALS) medical units, a duty Battalion Chief, and an EMS Supervisor. The Special Operations Division is responsible for the specialty teams within the Operations Section and includes:

These teams are all collateral duties of personnel assigned to the 4 stations. The Fire Marshal's Office
Fire and Explosives Services Unit provides the staff and equipment for bomb squad activities.

Yesterday evening, the Annapolis Fire Department and Anne Arundel County Fire Department proudly celebrated the graduation of Recruit Class 66!

Fire Chief Remaley, along with command, training, and operational staff, was present to celebrate the accomplishments of this outstanding class.

Since the beginning of January of this year, through intense training, physical challenges, and countless hours of hard work, these recruits have earned their place in the fire service. 💪🚒

👏 A special thank you to Anne Arundel County Fire Chief Trisha Wolford, her command staff, and the Anne Arundel County Fire Department Training Academy staff for the opportunity to train together. Also, our training academy staff and all of our personnel who have contributed to and supported the development of these new firefighters during their time in the academy.

Day 4 of Fire Prevention Week! 🚒

When charging your electronics, charge on a hard, flat surface like a table, desk, or floor.

Never charge them on beds, couches, or pillows, as they can trap heat and block airflow. This is important to prevent the battery from overheating and protect your home from fire hazards.

Day 3 of Fire Prevention Week! 🚒

Use only the charger that came with your device or one approved by the manufacturer. Using the wrong charger can damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

Using the wrong charger can damage the battery and increase the chance of a fire. Some off-brand or cheap chargers may not meet important safety standards. A damaged or low-quality charger can overheat, fail, and turn a simple charging routine into a fire hazard.

A few extra dollars for a quality, certified charger is a small price to pay for safety!

Day 2 of Fire Prevention Week! 🚒

Stop using your device immediately if the battery smells, overheats, pops, deforms, changes color, or smokes.

If it is safe, move it away from flammable items, as damaged batteries can catch fire.

Remember, you have the Superpower to Charge Safely!
