As your generator is used during this power outage from Tropical Storm Edouard, please prioritize safety. Keep generators outside in well-ventilated areas to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Never operate a generator indoors or in a garage, even with windows open. Ensure it's placed away from windows and doors. Let's work together to keep Beaumont safe.

March is National Ladder Safety Month, and your Beaumont Fire Department wants to make sure everyone in our community stays grounded. Whether you’re reaching for a high shelf in the kitchen or doing maintenance around the house, those simple tasks can be riskier than you think.

​Did you know that ladder injuries lead to over 136,000 emergency room visits every year? In fact, you’re statistically more likely to be injured by a ladder than by a house fire or a microwave.

​Keep these two tips in mind to stay safe:

​Watch that last step: Missing the final step while climbing down is one of the most common causes of accidents.

​Don't overreach: It’s tempting to stretch a little further, but overreaching is a leading cause of falls.

​Let’s work together to keep Beaumont safe. Check out the attached flyers for more eye-opening stats and safety tips!

🔥 Our firefighters had a great time at the College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR) Career Fair at Beaumont United High School!

A huge thank you to Mrs. Douglas for hosting such a great event to help students prepare for their futures.

There were hundreds of students and over 75 vendors in attendance.

We enjoyed connecting with students, answering questions, and sharing what it means to serve the community as a Beaumont Firefighter.
