The Fire and Rescue Department consists of 11 volunteer fire and rescue companies operated by approximately 320 operational volunteer personnel, supported by 73 uniform career staff and six office staff. The agency coordinates with our volunteer companies to deliver firefighting and emergency medical services within Frederick County. Nine companies provide advanced life support emergency medical services at the cardiac/paramedic level; two provide emergency medical services at the basic level. The department also operates three ALS Response Units at Middletown, Greenwood, and Gainesboro 24 hours daily and provides 24 hour staffing to the Round Hill Community, Stephens City, Millwood Station, and Clear Brook stations. Daytime staffing is provided to Gore, North Mountain and Reynolds Store stations. Star Tannery is the only station at this time that does not have career staffing.
