Volunteer Firefighter, Mahurangi East Fire Station, Auckland

06/2017 - Present

I have now been a volunteer firefighter for 8 years and I am not looking at stopping. We attend fires, crashes, trees down, floods, and lots of medicals. We also install smoke detectors for those that do not know how to install them themselves or those who can't install them themselves. We train every Tuesday night and every third week I am on duty where which involves cleaning station, truck and sorting out of gear. This is done on a Sunday morning. We do over 200 call outs a year and this number is going to continue increasing. I am able to take in knowledge and skills that I have learned through my degree, and while working on the road as an paramedic, and apply this to every patient in order for them go get the necessary care or interventions they need for the best outcome.
