Welcome to the Camas Fire Department.

 



Welcome to the Camas Fire Department home page. The Camas Fire Department provides both fire and emergency medical services to our citizens. CFD personnel also provide emergency medical services to citizens outside the Camas city limits along with mutual aid fire protection to neighboring departments.

The Camas Fire Department covers twelve square miles and 16,280 citizens for fire protection and approximately 92 square miles containing 43,000 citizens for paramedic services. CFD averages approximately 2,500 fire and medical calls annually.

There are currently thirty professional firefighters, one deputy fire marshal, one chief, three battalion chiefs, and two office staff personnel at CFD. All line firefighters are either EMT/I.V Technicians or EMT/Paramedics along with high levels of training in fire suppression.

We have two staffed stations, Station 41 in downtown Camas and Station 42 in the Prune Hill area. Each station contains at least one advanced life support ambulance and either a truck or engine. All of our fire apparatus contain advanced life support equipment along with state-of-the-art fire equipment.

Camas Fire Department is the only fire department in Clark County that provides ambulance services. This added responsibility requires our firefighters to be highly skilled in emergency services along with fire suppression techniques.
