🎃🚒 Happy Halloween from the Crestwood Fire Department!

As you head out tonight, be sure to keep these safety tips in mind:
🔥 Carry a flashlight or glow stick so you're easy to see after dark.
🚸 Use sidewalks and crosswalks whenever possible.
🎭 Choose costumes that won't block your vision or create a tripping hazard.
🍬 Wait until you get home to check your treats before enjoying them.
🚗 Drivers, please slow down and watch for trick-or-treaters throughout the evening.

And because no Halloween safety post is complete without a corny fire department joke...
Firefighters in Athens were having trouble putting out a cooking fire. Then they remembered you're supposed to smother Greece fires, not use water. 😂

Stay safe, stay visible and leave the only scares to the costumes this Halloween! 🎃🚒👻

🫀 Building a safer Crestwood starts with neighbors who are prepared, willing and able to help one another when emergencies happen.

October is Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month, and the Crestwood Fire Department is spreading awareness through SHOCK-TOBER. Earlier this month, residents took an important step toward emergency preparedness by participating in our first free CPR class, taught by CPR-certified Crestwood firefighters.

When someone experiences sudden cardiac arrest, every second counts. Immediate CPR can double or even triple a person's chance of survival, and early use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) can make an even greater difference. While firefighters and paramedics respond as quickly as possible, community members are often in the best position to help during those first critical moments.

By learning CPR, residents are helping build a community that is ready to respond when neighbors need help most.

For community members interested in learning this valuable, life-saving skill, we have three additional free CPR classes coming up on Oct. 22, Nov. 11 and Dec. 9.

🚒 Reunion with accident survivor reminds us of the lasting impact of public service and teamwork.

Earlier this year, Crestwood first responders responded to a severe motorcycle accident involving a young man in our community. The injuries he sustained were life-threatening and placed his leg at significant risk. Through the quick actions, teamwork and advanced medical care provided by the Fire Department, paramedics and Police Department, his life was saved and doctors were ultimately able to save his leg.

Today, that young man returned to the Government Center to thank the first responders who answered the call earlier this year. Seeing him walk through our doors under his own power, recovering and moving forward, was a powerful reminder of the difference our first responders make every day.

We are incredibly proud of the professionalism, compassion and dedication demonstrated by our Fire Department, paramedics and Police Department. Most importantly, we are grateful to see this young man continuing on his road to recovery.

September is National Preparedness Month, and as the month comes to a close, it’s a good time to take a few simple steps to help your household stand ready.

Make a plan, build an emergency kit and make sure you know where to find trusted information during an emergency. Preparedness is also about being there for your neighbors, family and community when they need help.

National Preparedness Month: Be There for Your Community 🤝

Preparedness isn't just about taking care of yourself and your household. Neighbors, friends and family members can play an important role in helping one another during an emergency.

Consider learning basic first aid and CPR, and make sure you know how to safely use a fire extinguisher. In some emergencies, simple actions taken before first responders arrive can make a difference.

The Crestwood Fire Department plans to begin offering free CPR certification classes in October. Residents interested in learning more or being notified when class availability is announced can email [email protected].

You can also get to know your neighbors and consider how you could check on one another during an emergency, particularly neighbors who may need additional assistance.

Preparedness is a community effort. When we all stand ready, Crestwood is better prepared to respond when emergencies happen.
