The
Shenandoah County Department of Fire and Rescue was
established in 1998 at the foresight of the Shenandoah County Board of
Supervisors.The Board of Supervisors could see a need in the future for paid personnel to supplement the volunteer organizations in order to provide the best service to our county residents and those that pass through the county in their greatest time of need and emergency.
At the time, the County Board of Supervisors thought to place someone in a Coordinator position to provide volunteer training and assist in keeping fire and rescue apparatus up to date.
Currently SCFR has a Fire Chief, Fire Marshal, Operations Section Chief, Training Officer, and Service Assistant seeing to the needs of the volunteer agencies and 30 career staff manning stations.
SCFR promotes good communication and a positive working environment for all involved. New standard operating guidelines have been implemented so that the best quality of service can be provided to all.
