Station 113 C-Shift recently received recognition from Texas Health for their outstanding patient care and teamwork.

The recognition stemmed from a call involving a patient who suffered a cardiac arrest. Through the crew’s quick actions and high-quality care, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was achieved prior to transport. Upon arrival at Texas Health Plano, the patient was rapidly transferred to the cardiac catheterization lab for advanced treatment.

This successful outcome highlights the seamless collaboration between Carrollton Fire Rescue EMS personnel and the emergency department team at Texas Health Plano. Working together, they made a meaningful difference in this patient’s life and exemplified the dedication and professionalism of all involved.

After more than 28 years of service to the citizens of Carrollton, Apparatus Operator/Paramedic Lynn Harpold is hanging up the uniform.

For nearly three decades, Lynn answered the call, responding to emergencies, mentoring firefighters, caring for patients, and helping shape Carrollton Fire Rescue into what it is today. The impact of a career like his can’t be measured in years alone, but in the countless lives touched along the way.

Today, we celebrate a remarkable career, a lasting legacy, and a well-earned retirement.

Congratulations, Lynn. Thank you for 28 years of dedication, professionalism, and service to this community. We wish you nothing but happiness in the next chapter.

As technology continues to evolve, so does emergency response. This week, members of Carrollton Fire Rescue attended the annual Electric Vehicle and Stored Energy Summit at Texas A&M, where fire service professionals, engineers and hazardous materials experts from across the country came together to share insights, lessons learned and emerging best practices related to EV and battery-related emergencies.

Training opportunities like these help ensure our personnel remain prepared to safely respond to the ever-changing challenges facing the fire service and the communities we serve.

Today, we celebrate the mothers who hold everything together, the ones who show up with strength, compassion, sacrifice, and unwavering love every single day.

To the moms in our Carrollton Police and Fire Rescue families, and to all mothers in our community: thank you for being our first heroes, our biggest supporters, and the heart behind so much of what we do. We know it’s not always easy, but you continue to do it all anyway, and for that, we are endlessly grateful.

Happy Mother’s Day from the Carrollton Police Department and Carrollton Fire Rescue.
