A Day in the Life Firefighter

- This is a Day in the Life as a Firefighter with Unified Fire Authority.
It’s hard to put a video together of our typical day. In the fire service the only thing that is consistent is that every day is different. With the different types of calls we go on, we have to be prepared for anything.
Firefighter Dylan DeVoogd does a great job showcasing the typical structure of our day. However, some days you might have to skip that workout because of the back to back calls. Our shifts at UFA are 48 hours long which means we truly do live in these stations 1/3 of our time. Our crews become an extension of our families. We eat together, work through trials together and celebrate our accomplishments together. Being a firefighter offers a meaning that is difficult to convey. There is so much that happens in a day in the life.

Hi!My name is John ,I am from Greece and I would like to become a firefighter in USA.What I have to do in order to attend the Fire Department?
@@SpecificGarage-l7j if you are a legal resident of the US you can apply to your local fire department on their website. You can get any information you need on their website. You should just have to type, for example “MayCountyFireDepartment” and you’ll be able to find it. Make sure to use your own counties name though.
@@SpecificGarage-l7jyou have to have a US citizenship/green card. Then find a location where you’d want to be a firefighter
Best way to start is through a vol station. Thats what im doing rn.@@SpecificGarage-l7j
I can't speak for all fire departments in the US. With us you have to go through E-Verifywww.e-verify.gov/ to be eligible for hire.
This used to be the job, at least my dept. Went from 25,000 calls a year to over 80,000 calls. So now the truck check usually happens after multiple back to back morning calls closer to 10/11 am. There’s no coffee talk, no time for shopping or eating lunch, more calls, then we attempt to train but that’s instantly cancelled by calls, then dinner is interrupted as we cook and as we eat for MORE calls, movie nights are gone since we are running calls. And sleep only happens off duty after the shift finally ends since you can’t take calls after your shift ends. That’s the next shift’s problem.
Ahhhh the beauty of working in an understaffed dept filled with senior citizens using 911 for Uber rides.
EMS is the best.
I’m in training to become a firefighter and I can’t wait to get to have these days with my future crew, it’s gonna be so awesome
Me too it was either this or the army and I prefer this

Damn sounds like a relaxing job lol
Wouldn't say relaxing, lots of emergency calls in between all of this.

What kind of shift do you work? 8, 10, 12, 24 or 40? Or is it some different shift?
Our schedule is a 48 hour on, 96 hour off rotation, which is a pretty common shift in the fire service.
You skipped the part in-between each activity there's a call
You ain't wrong. We respond very regularly to someone's emergency every day.
How do I get started on training? I want to become a firefighter, I’m 19, have a HS diploma, license, and physically fit, what do I start with on getting onto the path of becoming a firefighter
Getting in to the fire service is different everywhere. We recommend you reach out to a local department near you and find out what to do on a local level.
