The Border City Fire Department is a public safety organization that provides fire, rescue and emergency services to the community that relies on volunteer membership. We are committed to the preservation of life, property and the environment. Through education and public awareness programs, we enhance the quality of life and the safety of the citizens we proudly serve.

Positions available in the Border City Fire Department: 
1. Firefighter - This is the primary position for all members of the Department. The firefighter responds to emergencies which threaten the safety of citizens or their property. The firefighter receives basic and advanced training in preparation for emergency response. The firefighter also receives protective clothing and gear suitable for emergency situations. All firefighters also receive training and certification in basic Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) techniques and Auto Defribulator (AED) use.

2. Emergency Medical Services - Firefighters who are interested in becoming Certified First Responder (CFR) or a Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) receive additional training and can become certified in New York State. With this additional training firefighters can serve the community by assisting residents who become ill or are injured.

3. Fire Police - Firefighters may be called on to provide traffic control or help with management of bystanders during an emergency evolution. The Border City Fire Department provides the special training required in the state of New York for a person to be sworn in as a Fire Police officer.

4. Rescue Operations - Firefighters may participate in additional training which would qualify them for special roles in auto extrication, water related rescues, remote area related rescues, and rope rescue operations. These special qualifications increase the value that a firefighter brings to the community and to the Fire Department.
