SUV slams into 7-11 FRED BACCHI

Commercial florist fire On June 29, 2014 at approximately 11:30 p.m. FDNY units responded to a fire in a commercial florist. The fire building was a one story brick 75x100. The fire was located in the rear and spread into the cockloft. As conditions on the roof were deteriorating, reports from inside indicated main body of fire was knocked down. An additional engine and truck were ordered and the truck was to be a tower ladder. The fire was placed under control at 11:57 p.m.

At approximately 12:30 p.m. on June 6, 2014 a woman lost control of her SUV and slammed it right into the front of the 711 store located in Brooklyn at 1970 Ralph Ave in the Flatlands section. The woman lost control and slammed right through the front of the 7-11 store, causing extensive damage. The FDNY was on scene investigating and the Chief of the 58th Battalion ordered Res2cuE to continue to the scene to check the structural integrity of the building. EMS transported the driver to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Three alarms in the Bronx At approximately 2:00 p.m. on June 6th, the Bronx Communications office started receiving numerous calls reporting a fire at 2114 Lacombe Avenue. They sent a response of four engines, two trucks, Rescue 3, Squad 61 and Battalion 20.

Engine Company 64 gave a 1075 from two blocks away due to a large column of smoke in the distance. Once Battalion 20 arrived on scene, they advised they were using All Hands for a fire on the first floor of a three story attached private dwelling.

Battalion 20 then requested the second alarm because the fire had

JUMP TO FILE #060914100

extended to the second and third floors.

Moments later, Division 6 arrived and transmitted a third alarm due to the fire extending to the cockloft. The fire was placed under control about two hours later.

The initial response included Engines 64, 96, 89, and 94; Ladder 47 and 54; Rescue 3; Squad 61; and Battalion 20.

Once the 10-75 was transmitted, Tower Ladder 50 was assigned as the FAST truck along with Divi-

The need for a social media presence – don’t be a dinosaur EMS ISSUE CHELLE CORDERO

If your agency has all the funding it needs, is overflowing with volunteers or employees, has an abundance of community support and has no need for charitable donations – then this article is not for you. However if your agency, like the majority nationwide, is struggling for survival, needs people to fill the schedule, and has to raise funds with mailings, buckets and more – then you need to improve your social media presence.

Facebook, Twitter, Googleplus, websites and email aren’t evil; used right these sites will help establish an open line of communication with your members, improve the rapport you have in the community and attract new volunteers/members and donations.

Although there might be those resistant to using the computer (often self-proclaimed dinosaurs), including some in administration, you are handicapping your agency’s growth and well-being if you resist a solid web-presence.

Don’t let administrators forget what is good for the corps in order to avoid their own discomfort.

Social media is the way of most business nowadays, and non-profits can certainly benefit; social media includes blogs, website, public photos AND interactive social networking sites.

Your websites can advertise services and your mission statement, make it easy for people to find employment and volunteer opportunities, and help build rapport with the community where you are seeking support. Put every member on an email list and blast out events and special notices.

Use an online scheduling system so members can easily fill your schedule and everyone can see what shifts are open.

While board business should be handled during face-to-face meetings, sending out documents for review beforehand will save time and improve efficiency.

Having a website allows the community to know more about you and allows them a connection which can pay off in support.

The website should be an upto-date reflection of your agency.

Use your site to announce community classes, post monthly reports about how many calls you

responded to, let them know if you have a loan closet or do non-emergency transports.

You should also post your Privacy Policy and procedures for patients to request their records.

Publicly congratulate your members, especially when they are members of the community, for their accomplishments, years of service, etc.

Make sure you post a membership application (for download) on your site, the easier you make it for someone to volunteer, the easier it is to recruit new members.

Posting a FaceBook page is a good idea, but make sure you have a couple of moderators who can and will frequently monitor postings so you can avoid anyone “airing dirty laundry”, but by all means allow interactive discussion with the community.

Even if you’ve still decided that your agency does not need social media, you still need to establish a Social Media policy – your members (many of them at least) probably have FaceBook, Twitter, Google-plus or some other social site.

Aside from avoiding any HIPPA violations, you should have a policy in place to discourage minor disagreements from being aired publicly and turned into something bigger which could negatively impact the public’s opinion of your organization.

While First Amendment Freedom-of-Speech should never be denied, a municipal ambulance agency represents the local government and hopefully nothing should be posted that is detrimental to the agency or the town.

However while you can mandate HIPPA compliance, any other policy regulations should be strongly “recommended” and legal advice should be sought before disciplining any member who may not follow the guidelines.

It’s a good idea to form a Social Media “Team”; the team should work cooperatively with your Public Relations/Publicity team to ensure that vital information is going out to everyone, but its task should be specific.

There are several hosting sites that are easy do-it-yourself as well as hosted and inexpensive, you don’t need much computer savvy to maintain a website, blog or networking page.

Between the proven advantages of an agency having a web presence and the ease of doing just that, there really is no reason not to engage in active social media.

Two alarms in Brooklyn On June 16th, a fire broke out in a private home at Autumn and Sutter Avenues in Brooklyn.

FDNY HOUSES

1st Responder Newspaper - FDNY

Engine 207 and 100 Truck

FDNY HOUSES by Larry Woodcock

In the New York City Fire Department’s 150 year history, many innovations have taken place from equipment to apparatus to procedures. Some of the strategies and operations were adopted and became policy by departments all over the United States and perhaps parts of the world.

Some equipment the department no longer uses on a daily basis has become the talk of days and times gone by.

One of the most discussed and remembered symbols of the department is the super pumper. The super pumper was placed in service on October 1,1965 after almost two years of design and delivery.

Designed by William Gibbs, a renowned naval architect who came up with the idea of a “land fireboat,� approached the FDNY with his concept. The department was very intrigued by the highpressure pumper, especially after a series of big fires on Staten Island in 1963 that were made worse by prolonged water shortages due to drought and poor water mains.

The fire required many companies to ferry over from Brooklyn and Manhattan. The selling point was that the pumper could have drafted from the bay and provide an unlimited supply of water at high volumes.

A 16-cyclinder engine could power the six-stage pump, driven by an astonishing 2200 horsepower, capable of 10,000 gallons per minute. It would be an 18wheeler with a length of 43 feet and weigh 68,000 pounds with a two-seat cab.

The second piece, a tender would carry 5,000 feet of 4 ½ hose and have an 8 inch stang tip that could be interchanged over to tips of 3, 4, 5 and a 2000 gallon per minute fog tip.

In order to counteract tremendous nozzle reaction, outriggers were placed on each side directly behind the cab. Its overall length was 41 feet, weighing 60,000 pounds and have an identical height of 11’4�.

Both units could respond in conjunction with each other. The cost at the time to build was an astounding $875,000. Several hearings with the city council were held to justify the expense.

Originally housed on Hooper Street at 211 & 119, they relocated to Downtown Brooklyn in the Fort Greene section at 207 Engine and 110 Truck on Tillary Street in April of 1972.

Located in the center of Downtown Brooklyn and in the shadows of the Brooklyn Queens Expressway, this fire house was completed in 1971 and has a much more modern contemporary look.

Its large size is very different from the traditional firehouses seen in

LARRY WOODCOCK

New York City.

It was built to incorporate multiple units when it first opened, as well as today.

The super pumper operated at many multiple alarm fires and high profile events during its time in service.

It reached mythical status with firefighters and buffs from all over the United States as well as the world. People traveled to New York City just to take pictures and hopefully see it in action.

The super pumper was taken out of service and disbanded on July 1st, 1975 ending a short tenure that is talked about until

today.

Over the years, the super pumper was bought and restored by several collectors throughout the United States and still lives on.

One wish I have heard from many, myself included, was that the city should have retired it and placed it on display at the fire museum or at the fire academy. It was a special part of the fire department’s colorful past and history that should always be remembered.

The fire house still bears the name of the super pumper and tender above the apparatus doors as a tribute to a period in time not forgotten.

Engine 207 was organized as Brooklyn Fire Department Engine 7 on September 15, 1869. It is located at 245 Pearl Street.

It changed over to Engine 107 in 1899 and then Engine 207 in 1913. They moved to 365 Jay Street in 1946 before moving to their present house in 1971.

Ladder 110 was organized as Brooklyn Fire Department Ladder 10 on August 1, 1891 located at 264 State Street. It changed over to Ladder 60 in 1899 and then to Ladder 110 in 1913. They moved to 365 Jay Street in 1949 before moving to the present firehouse in 1972.

The 31st Battalion, who resides here as well, was organized as Brooklyn District Chief 11 on January 20, 1896. It changed over to Battalion 31 in 1898. It occupied both addresses mentioned above before moving to Tillary Street in 1972.

The 11th Division found here, was organized on April 15, 1906 and has had numerous locations before coming here in July of 1990.

Finally, Satellite 6, which is not staffed on a daily basis, responds on second alarms or greater with Engine 207, which was organized in December of 1998. Never a dull moment here.
