Calgary fire chief optimistic for 2023 after ‘transitional’ year for department
Calgary’s fire chief says he is feeling optimistic for the fire department heading into 2023 after another record year for emergency responses.
“People experiencing homelessness, mental health and addictions, and we’re often first on scene with those people when they need help,” Dongworth said.Tragically, this year also saw the fire department respond to seven fatal fires after experiencing none in 2021. “We’ve been able to help out, to quite a degree, with particularly the more serious patients, spending time with those patients until paramedics arrive, or on some occasions, taking them to the hospital with appropriate physician guidance,” Dongworth said.‘That day I really wanted EMS’: Parents of 3-year-old taken to hospital in fire truck speak out
Ward 12 Coun. Evan Spencer said council got an understanding of the struggles facing the fire department during a fire operations tour earlier this year, following several budget adjustments that saw cuts to the firefighter budget.“They ended up bearing the brunt of some pretty big cuts so they really were in a tough spot, and that became clear on a variety of different occasions,” Spencer told Global News.
