(Frederick, Md, October 9, 2013) – Today, Frederick County Fire and Rescue launched a new initiative intended to improve its customers’ understanding of the fire and rescue service and assure that all requests for information receive a timely response.
When visiting the fire and rescue website, www.FrederickCountyMD.gov/DFRS, customers will find a way to more easily contact fire service personnel on a wide variety of issues.
Chief Denise Pouget of the Division of Fire & Rescue Services commented on this effort by saying, “As this is fire prevention week, there is no better time to increase our public outreach. Since July, our community services liaison has improved the community’s awareness of the fire and rescue service through increased distribution of news releases and use of social media -- this is just one more tool in our toolbox.”
Citizens who have general fire and rescue questions, would like to arrange for a speaker at their organization, or require general fire/rescue information will find this an easy way to contact the division. Smoke alarms or child seat safety information can be obtained using the contact information below.
Smoke Alarm: 301-600-7275 (Smoke Alarms Save Lives) or e-mail smokealarm@FrederickCountyMD.gov.
Child Safety Information: 301-600-7328 (SEAT).
