About Denham Springs Fire Department:
Denham Springs Fire Department proudly protects 10,300 people living in an area of 25 square miles. We operate out of 3 stations that protect a primarily residential area. Our department is a public department whose members are paid. Having 25 paid personnel we are trained for a variety of emergencies: For EMS: we have 18 First Responders, 5 EMT-B and 2 EMT-P; For Haz-Mat Incidents: 17 are trained at Haz-Mat Operations Level and 3 at Haz-Mat Technician Level. We also have 3 Certified Training Officers. We feel we have a well rounded department to meet all emergencies and we are continueing our education to stay abreast of today's changing world. We had a total of 1682 calls for the year 2005 (up from 1307 for 2004 and 1275 for 2003), with only a $424,200 or 10.08% loss on a total of $4,209,000. Being just east of Baton Rouge and having an increase of population, residential construction is on the rise. For all of you patch collectors, we also trade our patch one for one with other paid departments at this time. You may contact Asst. Chief Terrell in care of denhamfire@bellsouth.net.
