Hollywood Fire Rescue and Beach Safety This is the official page of the Hollywood, Florida Fire Rescue and Beach Safety. For emergencies call 911

Since 1925, Hollywood Fire Rescue and Beach Safety has been dedicated to protecting our community. What started with just 19 firefighters and two pieces of equipment has grown into a department of nearly 300 personnel operating out of six stations with over 20 emergency response vehicles. Not only do we provide fire and emergency medical services, but we also respond to calls for hazardous materials, technical rescue, flooding, fire inspections, and much more. Our Ocean Rescue lifeguards are also available to respond to water rescues and medical calls on our beach. Our mission remains the same—enhancing the quality of life and safety for everyone in the City of Hollywood. We’re proud of our history and excited for the future!

Today marks the final day of the 2026 Brotherhood Ride, and we are incredibly proud of Driver Engineer Timothy Poole, who completed an impressive 600‑mile journey over seven days, riding from Fort Myers to Miami.

Each year, cyclists travel hundreds of miles across Florida in solidarity and remembrance, pushing through long days to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

This year’s ride honored the 22 first responders, including two K9s, who tragically died in the line of duty in 2025. The mission of the Brotherhood Ride is to ensure their families know that their heroes are never forgotten.

Timothy’s dedication reflects the unity, compassion, and resilience that define our fire service family.

At yesterday’s City Commission meeting, Chief Levy recognized several outstanding members of our department and Public Works.

Retired Division Chief Diana DeAbreu and Battalion Chief Rob Raynor were honored with the Citizen’s Award of Merit and a Certificate of Commendation for their swift and decisive actions during a cardiac emergency.

Members of Public Works, Quentin Brownlee, Kamar Myers, and Garfield McKenzie, received the Citizen’s Award of Merit for their life‑saving efforts during a water emergency incident. While performing their routine work on the beach, they stopped immediately to respond and took action.

We are proud to recognize these individuals whose courage, commitment, and service reflect the very best of the City of Hollywood.

Happy Tuesday! Today, we'd like to introduce you to Hollywood Fire Rescue's Amy Parrinello and our chillest guy, Thor!

Inspired by the Paws & Protectors collaboration with Cooper City BSO, Broward County Animal Care has extended this heartwarming endeavor of pairing our adoptable pets with the first responders and personnel at Hollywood Fire Rescue and Beach Safety!

Division Chief Amy Parrinello has proudly served Hollywood Fire Rescue for 20 years, working her way up through the ranks to become a respected leader and mentor. Dedicated to her department and passionate about guiding the next generation, she embodies the true meaning of family. Whether at the firehouse, at home with her loved ones, or surrounded by her beloved dogs, family is at the heart of everything she does. Today is also a special day for Amy, it's her birthday! Happy Birthday, Amy! 🥳🎂

🐶 Meet Thor!
A2451357 | 6 Years old, Neutered Male
Alaskan Malamute | 70lbs

Thor is a strikingly handsome, odd-eyed (one blue, one brown) ball of fluff; he's a very calm and collected dog who appreciates similar surroundings! Although sweet and friendly, Thor has his boundaries when it comes to being disturbed or handled roughly and he isn't shy to express them! Because of this and prior reported incidents involving small dogs, Thor is recommended to go an adults only home or a home with older to teen children with no small dogs.

❤️ Interested in adopting Thor?
Drop by Broward County Animal Care and ask to meet him! Animal Care is open for pet adoptions 7 days a week from 11am-6pm.

🔁 Unable to adopt?
You can still make a difference! One share could help Thor find the forever home he’s been waiting for!

All week, our crews trained on a critical question: Who rescues the rescuers?

At a structure fire, a rapid intervention team (RIT) stands ready to assist firefighters who become trapped, injured, or unable to get out on their own. Their mission is guided by two priorities: keeping the firefighter supplied with breathable air and moving them to safety.

An emergency air supply keeps the firefighter breathing while the team prepares for removal. Securing the firefighter and their equipment allows rescuers to drag them through tight spaces with less risk of gear snagging or coming loose.

We train these skills intensively so that when one of our own needs help, our crews are ready.
