BLOOD PRESSURE CLINIC

Every Tuesday Morning at Fire Station One, two volunteer nurses are on hand to take
blood pressure readings from 9:00 am until Noon. This service is offered to the public at
no charge. We really appreciate these wonderful volunteers and their dedication to public service.

BEE ERADICATION

                Bullhead Firefighters are trained to eradicate aggressive bee swarms
                using high pressure foam. Citizens are encouraged to contact a beekeeper
                or an exterminator to have beehives removed, but if the bees
                are aggressive and agitated, and there is a danger that the bees
                might attack and sting, the fire department will respond
                and attempt to foam the swarm.

DEPARTMENT CHAPLAINS

Bullhead City Fire Department is pleased to welcome six new volunteer Chaplains to our staff. They are: Val Farber,
Ken Kreidel, Pat Nolan, Fred Stow, Jeff Turner and C.J. Kelly. Each of these volunteers have successfully completed
training courses in Basic Chaplaincy, Critical Incident Stress Management, and NIMS Incident Command.
These men will be assigned 24-hour on-call shifts to respond to fires and accidents and any other incidents where support
and assistance is needed to comfort and help victims and family members through difficult situations.
