We continue to have great success with our training and retention program, one of our Full-Time staff completed their Paramedic training last year, One completed their Advanced training last year, along with another per-diem member. Two of our Full-Time members completed their fire Instructor training, the first step on the way to obtaining their Fire Officer certification. All of our current officers have completed their Fire Instructor and Fire Officer certification trainings. We have another Full Time staff member beginning enrollment in paramedic school for the coming year. We also continue to improve our in-house training programs to include low angle ropes rescue, advanced extrication techniques, water and ice rescue certified trainers and Emergency Vehicle Operator instructors to keep our staff trained to the highest standards. Hollis Fire-Rescue has shown great growth and advancement over the past several years, the need still continues to increase, and we strive to continue our progress and improve the service we provide to our community.
