Weather, your vehicle, and keeping your kids safe

Is your car hot after sitting in the sun? Imagine what a child's car seat feels like after sitting in the sun. Baby in car seat Imagine what it's like to be left in a hot car while mommy or daddy "runs inside real quick" to pay for gas, leaving the windows closed. My inside vehicle temperature was 97 yesterday, even with a sun shade in the windshield and cool outside temperatures. Read the stunning facts here. This site, SAFE KIDS.org, is a "must" site for parents, grandparents, babysitters, siblings - anyone who has contact with children.

Sharps Disposal

Palm Bay Fire-Rescue participates in Brevard County's Sharps Program (see informational brochure here). Procedures for collection of used sharps must be followed to prevent any possibility of contamination. Sharps must be placed in the official sharps storage container by the owner of the sharps container. Sharps containers are not be be left unattended at any collection facility. Please understand fire personnel are on call 24 hours a day, and may be out of their station on a call when you arrive. Again, sharps containers are not to be left unattended per biomedical waste laws.

Unsure of the disposal of old medications? The FDA has a site that provides guidance for a large number of medications - go here. This site also provides excellent information regarding food, cosmetics, medical devices, etc.

Is your home properly marked?

(This article is dedicated to D/E Jeff Burgin. It was his vision to see all residences and businesses in Palm Bay property marked.)

Our mission is to provide you with top-notch customer service. Our goal is to get to you as soon as possible when you have an emergency. Having your house number properly marked and very visible from the street is essential. City Code dictates the posting of numerals at least 3" high, 1/2" wide, and in a contrasting color (Code of Ordiances link here. Select Land Development, Street Numbering and Naming, Chapter 179.062C). Please check the numbering on your home as a part of your family's safety plan.
