Our Shared Values

• Professionalism: We demonstrate excellence in every action.  Professionalism means holding ourselves to the highest standards of conduct, skill, and service. It shows up in the way we present ourselves, how we engage with the public, and the pride we take in delivering quality outcomes every time.
  
  
• Responsibility: We are accountable to our mission, our team, and our community. Responsibility reflects ownership of our decisions and actions, whether on an emergency scene, in training, or in daily operations. It is demonstrated through reliability, preparedness, and commitment to doing what is right.
  
  
• Integrity: We act with honesty, fairness, and transparency. Integrity builds trust within our department and with the public we serve. It shows up in keeping our word, upholding ethical standards, and making choices that reflect honor and respect for our profession and to one another.
  
  
• Duty: We honor our calling to serve and protect. Duty reflects our commitment to safeguarding lives, property, and the well-being of our community. It shows up in our readiness to respond, our persistence in overcoming challenges, and our willingness to put service above self.
  
  
• Empathy: We serve with compassion and understanding. Empathy guides how we interact with those experiencing crisis and with each other as colleagues. It shows up in listening with care, treating others with dignity, and recognizing the human element in every call, decision, and interaction.
