#MotivationMonday Our spotlight today is on our Honor Guard. They represent all of us at VCFD in the finest light during formal awards, parades, promotions, graduations and memorials. These members choose to be apart of a centuries old tradition of honoring our members, participating in civic events and honoring the fallen. Our Honor Guard members train in different elements of drill and ceremony. This consists of marching, flag etiquette, and for planned events throughout the year. Many of our members who participate in the Honor Guard have also served our country in the military and their continued service showcases their commitment to be apart of something bigger than themselves. These members find a calling in tradition and service to others. ___________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA ___________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood #Heavyequipment #aviation #SOCAL #Teamwork #Team
Let’s congratulate another promotion! Captain Johnathan Tolle, currently assigned as our COVID Officer in the EMS division. He has served throughout the county from fire stations 43, 32, 36, 34, and Air Unit as a full time Crew Chief. After serving the county for nine years as a firefighter/paramedic, we are happy to now watch him serve as a captain. Beyond his normal duties, Captain Tolle has served on our air unit and apparatus cadres. These separate cadres are made up of firefighters who take time away from their normal schedule to help keep the wheels rolling within that specialty. The air unit cadre develops the training for the aviation unit, flight paramedics, crew chief, and search & rescue teams who work either full time or as a collateral assignment. He is also a part of the apparatus cadre, which has designed our future medic squads being added to the fleet. We congratulate you on your promotion and wish you the best of luck ! - L1364 ___________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA ___________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood #Heavyequipment #aviation #SOCAL #Teamwork #Team

#MotivationMonday Today we’d like to highlight our Firefighter/Paramedics and their critical role in the EMS system and their dedication to providing the communities they serve the highest level of care possible. Your Ventura County Firefighters provide prehospital care as EMTs (BLS) or as paramedics (ALS). We specialize in a multitude of different fields and being a paramedic is absolutely another speciality one can obtain after getting hired or have prior to applying. Most come to us with prior experience or they voluntarily sign up to go to paramedic school after probation. Schooling in total consists of a year of classroom learning, hospital rotations and a field internship. Beyond this training our firefighters in Ventura County “Upgrade” from a level I to a level II paramedic by working under the direct supervision of a senior Firefighter-Paramedic. Earning the status of a level II Medic allows that individual to work as the sole paramedic with an Engineer & Captain (EMTs). Firefighter-paramedics have all the normal responsibilities of a firefighter with the added responsibility of providing advanced life support to the public. This consist of medical intubation, starting IVs, pushing/handling of narcotics etc... After being a qualified paramedic they are able to work in the aviation unit, Tactical Emergency Medicine, squads and the list goes on. We are extremely fortunate to have these members on our team when those critical calls go out. Our Firefighter-Paramedics are placed throughout the county between BLS VCFD fire stations and the location/distance of paramedic ambulances. 📸 : FFPM Chris Walker, Fire station 43 ___________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA ___________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood #Heavyequipment #aviation #SOCAL #Teamwork #Team
“Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.” ― Martin Luther King Jr.
Let’s congratulate our newest promotion of the year! First up Captain Steve Chandler, Currently assigned to Truck-54 in Camarillo. He has served throughout the county from fire stations: 41, 26, 33, 44, 43, 28 & 46. After serving the county for 14 years from the rank of firefighter to engineer we are happy to now watch him serve as a captain. Beyond his normal duties, Captain Chandler has served on our auto extrication and S.C.B.A cadres. These separate cadres are made up of firefighters who take time away from their normal schedule to help keep the wheels rolling. Our auto extrication or Auto X cadre teaches our trainees how to properly secure vehicles that have been in accidents and how to use the “jaws of life” to cut patients out of cars. The S.C.BA ( Self contained breathing apparatus) cadre also teaches our newest recruits how to operate and become familiar using our equipment used in firefighting operations. They also provide training and inspections on equipment throughout the department. We congratulate you on your promotion and wish you the best of luck ! - L1364 ___________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA ___________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood #Heavyequipment #aviation #SOCAL #Teamwork #Team
#wildlandwednesday Today your Ventura Co. Firefighters had the opportunity to take a staff ride to the Cory Iverson memorial. These staff rides are an opportunity for firefighters, engineers, captains and fire chiefs to learn about the horrible incidents that take the lives of our firefighters. We could read from a PowerPoint of all the mistakes, accidents, and near mishaps. However it’s important to create a human connection for brand new firefighters to the most senior fire chiefs. Your firefighters walk the path of the fallen and take a deeper look into what happened that day. Having the ability to participate in these staff rides provide such an important learning lesson to not have history repeat itself and helps create a closer connection to our fallen brothers and sisters. Linked to our story is the Iverson Foundation, please take a look.

As we start off the New Year we would like to welcome 29 new Firefighter Trainees and wish them the best of luck on their 20 week fire academy. They start next week in Fire Academy 58 and will be welcomed into the fire family with open arms. Although we welcome our newest addition into L1364 and add to our firefighter ranks, it’s up to every individual to prove their worth, show some grit, and endure the hardships that come with starting a career in the fire service. As they start their journey we’ll make sure to introduce them all and show you their progress. This photo is from a previous academy and takes place during the “Ladders” portion, where recruits learn the in and outs of ladder use on the fire ground. This can be a tough time for recruits physically and mentally. However, this photo captures about 30 seconds of laughter and surprise when the fire ground sang happy birthday to another recruit as she waved her arms like a conductor of a orchestra. We look forward to these moments with our newest recruits. Get ready 58... ___________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA ___________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood #Heavyequipment #aviation #SOCAL #Teamwork #Team

#WildlandWednesday Dozer 12 🇺🇸 During fire season our dozer operators stay extremely busy with their work on fighting wildland fires. However the rest of the year has an “Off season”. While they use their heavy equipment to build or improve our training grounds, they still remain ready for emergency operations.

Captain Jack Nosco is retiring after 37 years of dedicated service to communities of Ventura County! He’s retiring out of station 34 which is arguably our busiest station and Captain Nosco has made it look easy at the young age of 58. You should slow down during retirement sir. For those that don’t know him he’s an 3xUltraman, double/triple Ironman & LA marathon legacy. So taking it slow might not be his thing. Here he is, on what was probably his last TC (traffic collision) & Capt. Nosco is showing the same amount of care as he did the day he started. “It’s been real working with you. Enjoy your retirement and new journies, we’ll miss you on the big one.” - 34s Firefighter - Jack, my entire career you have set such a high example of delivering service to our communities, you are a perfect example of starting this profession strong and finishing strong. The legacy you are leaving is nothing less than professional. I have always appreciated our friendship and I am truly going to miss you. Enjoy your retirement Sir. “Full Throttle” - Dan Craig - 📸: @ __________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA __________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood #Heavyequipment #aviation #SOCAL

🚨Link in Bio🚨 take the time to help our #Firefamily Sawyer Garnsey, whose dad is an Engineer with us at Ventura County Fire... Help if you can & share as much as possible. Thirteen year old, Sawyer Garnsey, was recently diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma. Ewing Sarcoma is a rare and aggressive cancer that occurs in bones or the soft tissue around the bones that can spread (metastasize) to the lungs, other bones, and bone marrow potentially causing life-threatening complications. Sawyer has begun a very aggressive chemotherapy treatment. She has experienced some complications from the chemo which have resulted in additional days spent in the hospital. As you can imagine, this has placed a financial burden on her family. Sawyer’s dad, Brandon Garnsey, is an Engineer with VCFD, as well as a cancer survivor himself. Just to give you an idea of how awesome this girl is, Sawyer made the decision to cut all of her hair off before she lost it from the chemo so that she could donate it to someone else who needs it __________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #cancersucks

When you see firefighters around town, you’ll notice some obvious changes. We are taking all the precautions to make sure we are healthy and able to respond to your emergency. Our normal station uniform has had the addition of procedure masks and there has been a change to uniforms on 911 calls. For medical calls we are wearing EXTRA PPE. Our equipment consist of: Medical goggles Gloves An EMS jacket and/or medical gown N95 respirators. You will see our firefighters taking the extra time to don their PPE prior to any patient contact on emergency scenes. These necessary extra steps help our entire workforce remain healthy and ready to respond to the next emergency The extra PPE isn’t going to keep us safe alone. We are also taking steps to decontaminate our medical equipment on scene as well.

#WildlandWednesday Here you can see a firefighter standing by for water in an tempt to put out this tree and the surrounding wilderness. This photo to some can look amazing scary and beautiful at the same time due to the fire danger and the nature aspect. This firefighter knows exactly the danger that surrounds him, falling trees, shifts in wind, and the potential to run out of water. Our firefighters are “All risk” and respond to almost very type of 911 call. That being said our wildland knowledge is second to none and we carry that reputation proudly.

Hey Captain, This saying is something you’ll get used to hearing. Congratulations to Captain Jamie Hidalgo!! He is leaving station 30 as an engineer and promoting to Engine - 85, where he’ll continue to serve those in Thousand Oaks. Your depth of knowledge is heavily relied upon and your eagerness to continue to learn will inspire those who get to work alongside you. The guys on Engine-30 finally got their new engineer they’ve been wanting & gave you the boot... but I’m sure that’s just tough love! Enjoy the new responsibilities Capt!

There are a lot of new drivers on the road! Congrats to Robert Molina (second from left) to your promotion to engineer! He’s leaving one of our busiest fire houses, Medic rescue engine - 31, that serves the community #Westlake He’ll now be serving the community of Thousand Oaks aboard engine-30, congrats! From your former crew at 31’s “Your drive and dedication to the fire service will carry you into your new engineer position.

Engineer 45 at the pump panel! Our engineers are our biggest safety net in the fire service. They make sure we get to calls quickly and safely when the alarm sounds. They also provide the firefighter at the end of the nozzle their life line, water. Here you can see our engineer breaking down his thought process of how much water he can send the firefighter on the hose line. Flowing water isn’t as simple as turning on a garden hose and getting what you get. We need sufficient amounts of water at certain pressures in order to knock down the fire and provide a safety for those firefighters inside of a burning building. This process can be even more complicated when flowing multiple hose lines varying in different diameters. When they do their job right, everyone goes home happy. When something goes wrong, it can be detrimental to those on the fire ground. The direct actions from our crews continually show the dedication to the job, which leads us to believe we have some of the best engineers out there. __________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA __________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood

🔥 Truck work 🔥 Firefighter from Truck-35 using the rotary saw to forcibly open a shipping container that was full of fireworks and blowing out smoke. Our engine firefighters focus on suppression and utilize our hose lines to extinguish the fire. Our truckers and rescue companies are labeled “Support Companies” due to their role in supporting fire attack by utilizing saws, forcible entry tools, ground & aerial ladders, and auto extraction tools. These firefighters are highly specialized and always appreciated when there is work to be done. __________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA __________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck #instadaily #instagood

Congratulations to our newest captain promotion this year to Captain Erik Niemann. He’s one knowledgeable firefighter, Engineer, and will continue to educate himself in this new rank. As more of our new firefighters & engineers make the cut for promotions, we’ll make sure to snap a photo and give our well wishes. We are always happy to see the our brothers and sisters achieve milestones such as this! This small gathering was held outside with only members of his household. __________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA __________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck
It’s almost that time again!Here’s Squad 50 and our aviation unit from last year on a medical call in Lockwood Valley. Our firefighters, who are a part of our air unit, are invaluable when it comes to protecting and serving our citizens here in Ventura County. Our aviation unit has a permanent helicopter manager, two full time firefighter/crew chiefs, and multiple collateral crew chief positions for our firefighter paramedics. Our dedication to serving the county goes well beyond the minimum scheduled shifts each month. Everything outside of the normal firefighter position has dedicated personnel voluntarily making themselves better by learning a new skill, and our citizens directly benefit from that commitment. __________________________ 𝕃𝕚𝕜𝕖 & 𝕗𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕠𝕨 ✔️ IG: @Venturacountyfirefighters FB: Ventura County Firefighters Twitter: @VCPFA __________________________ #Venturacountyfirefighters #Venturacountyfire #Ventura #Local1364 #VCFD #Californiafirefighter #California #LosAngeles #Firefighter #Fire #Paramedic #trainyourprobie #ChiefMiller #Tiller #Truck
Two years ago, our community of Thousand Oaks was shattered by a truly horrible act that took the lives of 12 innocent souls. Today we remember them. In the aftermath of this shooting, we continue to train with our local law enforcement to ensure we are fully prepared to handle any situation. Select firefighters have cross-trained as tactical medics to ensure we can provide immediate care to our local law enforcement officers and civilian victims during acts of violence. As firefighters, we train to help others and become part of the community we serve. That night, our community grieved and today we honor who they were. #BL12 #4S3 #BorderlineStrong #TOStrong

A #gofundme has been established for the @ocfirefighters who were burned and are critically injured after fighting the current fires down in Orange County. We will continue to share the link in our story for those who can help. Your Ventura County Firefighters stand with #OCFA during this tragic time. #orangecountyfirefighters
One huge part of the fire service is station pride and how we represent our individual stations or assignments. All of our firefighters “bid” a fire station by using seniority to decide where to work, then it falls upon everyone in that fire house to make their own station T-shirts, Belt buckles, challenge coins etc... Here you can see everyone from our mechanics and heavy equipment operators to firefighters showing off that pride by making their own belt buckles. #stationpride Work done by @moorparkmetals Ask in the comments below: What you would like to know about your firefighters and the multiple “Jobs” you can have as a firefighter.

If there’s time to lean there’s time to clean... or take a shower - either one! In all fairness, here’s a shot of our members taking a break after one of the many fires we’ve had this year.

Here you can see the crews “breaking down” hose and taking down our ground ladders after a kitchen fire in #Thousandoaks One of the firefighters shown was just off probation, a demanding and intensive infield training, that continues after the VCFD regional academy. During probation, a firefighter is trained on all aspects of the job, but it’s important to remember after completing probation, the learning never stops. That same firefighter is talking ladder placement and building construction while getting ready for the next call, setting the example. 📸 credit: @vcfdbuff Ask in the comments below: What you would like to know about your firefighters and the multiple “Jobs” you can have as a firefighter.
