About Providing fire and emergency medical services to the City of Seat Pleasant and surrounding communities in Prince George's County. Story 100% Volunteer Fire/EMS Department. Mission The Seat Pleasant Volunteer Fire Company delivers Fire Supression, Heavy Rescue and Emergency Medical Services to the citizens of Prince George's County and the Town of Seat Pleasant three hundred sixty five days a year, 24 hours a day. Fire Suppression Our most basic function. This service consists of the application of water onto the seat of a fire from the inside of the building. During the fighting of the fire, we also ventilate the structure. This serves to let the heat escape, as well as giving any people left inside the building a better to living for us to rescue them. Search and Rescue Another traditional function. This consists of the searching of a building involved in fire, finding any victims trapped inside and then getting them out of the building via ladders, doors or other exit points. This can be the most dangerous part of the job, as many times the Firemen preforming the search are doing so without the protection of a hoseline. Overhaul When a fire is over, this hot, heavy and tiring job must be preformed in order to prevent any chance of the fire starting again. When a fireman looks like he is breaking walls and door frames, he is most likely searching for any unseen fire trapped in these spaces. Heavy Rescue Service Our Rescue Squad carries many tools to get people out of almost any situation that they can get themselves into. Our most common Rescue call is a Motor Vehicle Crash where the amount of damage to the call requires us to cut them out of the car. This usually involves the use of hydraulic tools commonly referred to as the "Jaws of Life". SPVFC also responds on less common Rescue calls such as Rope Rescues, Confined Space Rescues, Hazmat, and many others. Emergency Medical Service Our most common type of call. About 60% of our calls involve EMS. We deliver this service on both of our Engines, our Rescue Squad and on our Basic Life Support Ambulance. All of our Firemen are trained to at least Maryland Emergency Medical Technician Level of care. Our Paramedic service is handled by the PGFD AEMS division with Medic units staffed by Maryland Paramedics. Service Calls SPVFC also responds to many calls for service, such as children locked in vehicles and in houses.
