On-Scene Decontamination: Protecting Our Firefighters – Prescott Fire Department

Yesterday, Prescott Fire responded to a structure fire in the Timber Ridge area.

Crews were exposed to insulation and other hazardous materials commonly found in structure fires — substances that can pose serious long-term health risks.

Using new Truck 72, we were able to perform on-scene decontamination, reducing exposure before firefighters returned to the station.

This isn’t just a new piece of equipment — it’s a reflection of our commitment to the health and safety of our personnel. Prescott Fire is dedicated to protecting our crews with the same care and urgency they bring to protecting our community.
