To the members of the Hooksett Fire Rescue Dept:

As EMS Week is recognized, I want to take a moment to sincerely thank each and every one of you for the work you do every day in service to the community.

Whether responding to medical emergencies, comforting families during difficult moments, or standing ready at all hours to help complete strangers, your dedication does not go unnoticed. The compassion, professionalism, and sacrifice shown by all of you make an incredible difference in people’s lives—often on what may be the worst day they have ever experienced.

Thank you for the long hours, missed holidays, interrupted sleep, and the emotional weight that comes with caring for others. Your commitment to helping people, no matter the situation, reflects the very best of public service.

During EMS Week, please know that your efforts are deeply appreciated and respected. The town of Hooksett is stronger and safer because of you.

To the residents and visitors of Hooksett, rest assured that you are being protected by some of the best medical professionals I know; day and night. These men and women answer the call without hesitation. They are extraordinary professionals who truly care about the people they serve.

Stay safe, and thank you for all that you do. Happy EMS Week!

With gratitude,

Joseph Stalker
Captain of EMS

This week we recognize NATIONAL POLICE WEEK for 2026. Our friends in blue are there for you each and every day! We on the red side are here cheering for them always! (except for when they win the tug-of-war against us!) Please give a like to this post to show them your support and if you see them out and about this week, say hello, give them a friendly wave and a smile, and most of all, remember, they do this line of work to keep our community safe and happy. We wish that for them as well! Thank you for all you do, Hooksett Police Department!

Today, we recognize the dedicated members of the Hooksett Fire-Rescue Department who choose to serve our community—at all hours, in all conditions, and often at great personal sacrifice. As the Chief of this Department, I am proud of the professionalism, courage, and compassion you bring to every call, whether it’s a structure fire, a medical emergency, a vehicle crash, a hazardous condition, or a public assist.

International Firefighters’ Day is observed on May 4 to honor firefighters who have fallen in the line of duty and to thank the firefighters who continue to protect lives and property around the world. It’s also a reminder that this career—and this calling—demands constant training, teamwork, and readiness, and it requires the support of families and communities who stand behind those who serve.

To our firefighters: THANK YOU for your commitment, your integrity, and your willingness to run toward what others are running from. To your families and loved ones: Thank you for sharing that sacrifice and supporting the mission.

To our residents: Thank you for your trust, partnership, and continued support of our mission. It does not go unnoticed by me or our members.

To each and every member of Hooksett Fire, past and present, thank you—and Happy International Firefighters’ Day.

We have some "new kids in town" and we are working hard to train them up right! When probationary firefighters start here in Hooksett we put them through a very rigorous two week probationary school taught by our senior members where they learn all about the Hooksett way! We cover operations, EMS, apparatus, fire and rescue skills as well as vehicle extrication and hose operations as shown in our pictures. Our two most recent groups of new hires also got the opportunity to take part in a combined ops burn day at Allenstown's training facility today. The more training the better! Our goal is to prepare these men and woman to provide the best care and service they can to our community!
