About Windsor Township Emergency Services

Welcome to Windsor Township Emergency Services’ web page. You will find information about the services, facilities, equipment, and most importantly people, that make up our department.

The Department is owned and operated by Windsor Charter Township. We provide services to Windsor Township and the Village of Dimondale, and have automatic aid and mutual aid agreements with communities around us.

Primary services provided are:

house-fire

Fire – traditional fire and rescue services, including extrication from vehicle accidents

Emergency Medical Services (EMS) – we provide paramedic level (Advanced Life Support) ambulance service

Hazardous Materials Incident Response – Windsor Township Emergency Services and the Charlotte Fire Department jointly staff the Eaton County Hazardous Materials Unit.

We are also involved in many activities that complement our mission, such as CPR training, public fire and safety education programs, fire fighting and EMS training programs, and pre-planning for major disaster response.

Our department is a “combination” department, meaning that it is staffed by full-time and volunteer personnel.

To learn more about us, stop by our station any time.

Mission Statement

The Mission of Windsor Township Emergency Services is to provide quality Fire, Rescue, Emergency Medical, and Hazardous Materials response service to the Citizens of Windsor Township and the Village of Dimondale, and to persons who visit or travel through them.

To accomplish this, Windsor Township Emergency Services will:

Set its standard of service at the highest possible level, recognizing not only the action required to control the immediate situation, but also the personal and emotional needs of the affected persons and the potential impact on the environment and society as a whole.
Encourage the professional and personal development of its members.
Work with other community agencies in a coordinated effort in the best interest of the community.
Coordinate with related agencies in surrounding communities to minimize unnecessary duplication of effort and make mutual provisions to deal with emergencies beyond the scope of the resources of any particular agency.

History

Early fire protection was provided by a Village fire department, beginning in the early 1900’s. In 1945 the Township took over fire protection for both the Township and the Village. In 1954 the department moved into the station pictured here, which has since been converted into the Village of Dimondale office.

In 1975 the Township also took on the responsibility for ambulance service, operating it as a separate department, but housing both the fire and ambulance operations together. In the mid 1980s a new station was built on West Jefferson and an addition was put on that building in the late 1990’s.

In 1993 the ambulance operation upgraded to Advanced Life Support (paramedic) operation and hired full-time staff. The full-time staff were cross-trained to respond to fires also and the two departments operated as one. In 2001 the merger was formalized as the departments were merged into one Emergency Services Department, consisting of a Fire Division and an EMS Division.

EMS Education

We offer an EMT Initial Education Course at our station. This program is designed to prepare individuals to become certified Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and serve their communities by providing critical pre-hospital care.

Our EMT Initial Education Course follows the National EMS Education Standards and is approved by the State of Michigan. The course includes classroom instruction, hands-on skills labs, and real-world clinical and field experience.

This is a comprehensive EMT Training Course (approximately 260 hours), taught by licensed EMS instructors, and prepares students for the National Registry of EMTs (NREMT) exam.

For more information, contact Bill Fabijancic, Jr. between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM.
