🇺🇸🚒 A Little Early Morning Ladder Training

While returning from a call this morning, our crew noticed several American flags had gotten wrapped around their poles in the wind.

So, they stopped and took the opportunity to straighten them out while getting in a little impromptu ladder training at the same time.

Not every training opportunity has to be planned. Sometimes you just see something that needs done, grab a ladder, and get to work.

Flags fixed. Ladders thrown. Back in service. 🇺🇸

🇺🇸🚒 Investing in the Future of Public Safety

Yesterday, we had the honor of helping welcome U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon to the Southwest Area CTE Academy, along with state and federal leaders, education officials, and community leaders.

We also had the privilege of participating in a roundtable discussion where we were able to highlight our partnership with SWCTE and, more importantly, the impact that partnership is having on students.

Through SWCTE and Dickinson Fire, high school students have the opportunity to take Fire and EMS courses, earn industry-recognized certifications, gain hands-on experience, and explore careers in public safety before they ever graduate high school.

These partnerships are about more than classes. They create pathways into careers our communities depend on and help build the next generation of firefighters, EMTs, paramedics, and public safety professionals right here in western North Dakota.

We’re proud of what this partnership has accomplished and excited about where it’s headed. 🚒🚑

🚨 WE’RE HIRING - ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT 🚨

Not every member of the fire department wears turnout gear.

Behind every engine, ambulance, training program, report, purchase order, and emergency response is a whole lot of work that keeps the department moving.

We’re looking for an Administrative Assistant to join the Dickinson Fire Department team.

This isn’t just a desk job. You’ll be part of our crew and play an important role in supporting the firefighters and paramedics who serve our community every day.

💰 $19.84–$21.05/hour (DOE)
📅 Monday–Friday | Full-Time
🏥 80%–100% City-Paid Health Insurance
🏖️ 13 Paid Holidays + Vacation & Sick Leave
💵 NDPERS Retirement + Optional 457
🎓 Tuition Reimbursement

…and a great benefits package.

We’re looking for someone who is organized, dependable, proactive, detail-oriented, and ready to work in a fast-paced environment.

Two years of related experience is preferred, but don’t let that stop you. We’re willing to train the right person.

If you want a job where your work matters and you get to be part of something bigger than yourself, we’d love to hear from you.

🔥 Come be the support behind the mission. Apply today!

❤️⚡ Every firefighter can recognize the basics.

Then there are the paramedics…

Somehow they look at a bunch of squiggly lines and casually say, “Looks like a second-degree Type II with a left bundle branch block.”

The rest of us just nod and pretend we knew that too. 😅

All jokes aside, interpreting cardiac rhythms is a skill that takes hundreds of hours of education, training, and experience. It’s one of the many reasons paramedics are able to provide advanced, lifesaving care before a patient ever reaches the hospital.

We’re glad they’re on our team. 🚑❤️

🚒📚 This weekend, Dickinson Fire crews are in the Capital City attending the Prairie Fire Conference, continuing to sharpen their knowledge and skills.

From hands-on training to classroom sessions, the opportunity to learn from some of the best instructors in the fire service is invaluable. Just as important are the conversations, networking, and sharing of ideas with firefighters from across the region.

The fire service is constantly evolving, and we’re committed to bringing that knowledge back to Dickinson to better serve our community.

The training, networking, and fellowship have been second to none. 🔥

💧⚡ A huge thank you to DrinkLMNT and the community member who nominated Dickinson Fire through the “Give A Salt” initiative!

Our firefighters and paramedics recently received a generous supply of LMNT electrolytes to help keep our crews hydrated during training, emergency responses, and long days on the job.

With the summer heat in full swing, staying hydrated isn’t just about comfort. It’s about performance and safety.

We truly appreciate the support and are grateful to serve a community that is always looking out for us.

Thank you, LMNT, and thank you to the individual who thought of Dickinson Fire! 👏🚒

🚒 Training doesn’t stop when the tones are quiet.

While our crews were out training on hose deployment and fire attack in hotel occupancies, they had the chance to run into the band The Fray.

Not exactly part of the training plan… but we’ll take it. 😄

Every day is a little different, and this one came with an unexpected photo opportunity.
