Chandler Fire Department Welcomes Community with Educational Open House at Station No. 6

The Chandler Fire Department is swinging their station doors open to the community for a free open house on Saturday, Nov. 16, offering a peek into the life-saving operations that buzz behind the scenes. From 9 a.m. to noon at Fire Station No. 6, locals can indulge their fire truck fantasies, educate themselves on fire safety, and maybe learn a lifesaving trick or two. Located at 911 N. Jackson St., set between McQueen Road and Hamilton Street, the open house aims at bridging that gap between citizens and their protective services,

Visitors can expect a whirlwind of activities, complete with tours of the station’s facilities where firefighters combat blazes and respond to medical emergencies. Kids, donning pint-sized helmets included, might not remember free balloons, but they will get a crash course in escaping a smoke-filled room thanks to the Fire Safety House display. Running in with helpful demonstrations, emergency medical technicians will showcase their lifesaving techniques with apparatus on display.

For the adults in the crowd, rolling up their sleeves could serve a dual purpose at the event. They can get their blood pressure checked and brush up on drowning prevention strategies – a combo of health check and proactive learning. The centerpiece of the practical knowledge exchange is the instruction on Hands-Only CPR. This streamlined version of CPR, which ditches breaths for continuous chest compressions, is touted as vital for at-home, work, or public emergencies. “There are only two steps to remember: call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest,” praised the Chandler Fire Department, suggesting that simplicity might just be a lifesaver.

Community engagement initiatives like this open house are a staple for the Chandler Fire Department, illustrating that public service goes beyond responding to emergency calls – it’s also about fostering educated communities able to support each other until the professionals arrive.
