Today an agreement was signed at White Ridge Fire & Rescue HQ, for Mutual aid and for the Suicide Prevention and Intervention Task Force.
After a dramatic suicide attempt by a teen earlier this month, SVFD decieded to join White Ridge Fire and Rescue in the SPT.
All members of SVFD will be trained to handle with Suicide calls.
Also Rescue 5 and Rescue 6 are now able to go to the participating departments to assist with Suicide calls.
Rescue 5 will be used as a Mass Casualty Unit and Rescue 6 is going as a Water Rescue/ Recovery unit.

I want to thank James K. for this chance, and we all hope we dont have to call upon eachother often.
