The Carver Fire Department is located in Southeastern Massachusetts.
We proudly protect 11,368 people living in an area of 39.58 square miles. We operate out of three stations that protect a primarily residential/agricultural area. Our Department is an ISO 2/2Y-rated Public Department whose 85 members are on a paid on-call status.
On Sunday, Carver Fire assisted Carver Police with a search for a missing person in the Central Cemetery area of town. Officers and 30 Firefighters searched the extremely thick woods around the cemetery, while our Command staff deployed an all-weather thermal drone to search from above. Crews from Carver Police, Environmental Police, State Police, and others worked into the late night and in the heavy rain. The person was eventually found okay and transported by Carver EMS.

Our new Recruit Firefighters put their recently learned classroom knowledge to work at an MVA rescue practical at our Training Facility. Using a donated vehicle our Recruit Instructors guided our new Firefighters through the process of using the Jaws of Life, air bags and specialized rescue tools to free simulated trapped occupants. Each time a firefighter can practice simulated rescues under a controlled environment, makes them more proficient during the real emergency! (Photo’s by Firefighter, Steve Falconer)
