Advanced Fire & Rescue Services is a privately owned and operated emergency services company. Our personnel operate as a family of professionals who adapt years of experience, traditional education and practiced fire and medical skills to respond to unique emergency calls. At a minimum, our personnel hold Firefighter I and Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) certificates. However, these are just a beginning, as many of our members hold additional degrees, certificates, training and experience. Furthermore, to maintain current skill levels and to master the latest techniques and tactics, Advanced Fire & Rescue Services personnel attend a minimum 20 hours of training each month as well as attending additional specialized training classes.


PROVIDING UNIQUE SERVICES

Crew Working
To date, our business has primarily been derived from four unique areas which often require a heightened level of emergency preparedness and response capability. These areas include motorsports racing events, motion picture and television productions, special public events and contract services. Although other companies may provide similar services, we feel strongly that AFRS is in a league by itself for the following reasons:

AFRS is an Emergency Services Company-Advanced Fire & Rescue Services(AFRS)differs from any “competitors” in that we are not a “track safety company,” or an “ambulance company,” or a “towing company.” At its core, AFRS was founded in the tradition of the fire service. We are an emergency services company. Albeit an immeasurable difference, we believe this distinction holds our personnel and equipment to a higher standard in terms of professionalism, capability and preparedness.

Prevention vs. Response-Generally, much of the services we provide are done away from and prior to a particular event. Similar planning and thought processes go into every event we work. Although this is virtually impossible to measure, we would rather be judged by the accidents we prevent or minimize rather than those that we respond to.

Focus on Safety-Given the inherently dangerous nature of the work we do, safety at every step is essential. We go to great lengths to ensure the safety of not only our customers, but also the safety of our personnel. This is one area in which we will never compromise. All aspects of our company, from the design of the vehicles and equipment we use to the manner in which we conduct our training, stems from this focus.
