Frequently Asked Questions
Some frequently asked questions are:
• "Why does the fire truck respond to an ambulance call ?"
Bolingbrook Fire Department ambulances transport to local hospitals. That may mean that an ambulance may not be close to your house when you request our services. The fire truck may be the closest unit and can start lifesaving procedures prior to the arrival of an ambulance from another fire station.
All of our fire trucks are equipped with EMT's, capable of basic lifesaving techniques and some of our fire trucks are equipped with paramedics and the capability of performing advanced lifesaving techniques prior to the arrival of an ambulance.
• "Can I come for a tour of the fire station?"
The Bolingbrook Fire Department welcomes tours at any of the fire stations. You can stop by any day during normal business hours. If you need to set up a time, please call the main fire department number to schedule the time and date.
