Last week, we provided Standby Coverage at the annual Semo District Fair. Fire Department personnel were on site all 8 days of the fair, helping with any fire and rescue response needs. Additionally, in partnership with the Cape Girardeau County Public Health Center, Saint Francis Healthcare System, and Cape County Private Ambulance, we provided first aid/medical assistance. Plus, during the Demolition Derby and Tractor Pull, a dedicated standby crew was present at these events in case of any emergency. Here’s some quick facts: • 242.25 Hours of Fire Department staffing were provided. • 67 patients required medical assistance. All patients were treated and released on site. • Air Evac 80 - Perryville, Missouri flew in to say Hi and we provided their Landing Zone. • And, luckily, there were no fires. Thanks to everyone who attended the fair and made it a safe environment for everyone this year! Learn More
