Last year, Grand Junction Fire Department personnel
respond to over 7,000 calls for service. Most of these calls are
responded to in less than 5 minutes.
Here are some ways you can help the Grand Junction
Fire Department help you during an emergency:
Only Call 9-1-1 to Report:
A fire
A serious crime
Any serious medical condition
Any situation requiring immediate response
of Police, Fire or Emergency Medical Personnel
What the 9-1-1 Operator Will Want to Know:
Address of the emergency
Phone number you are calling from
Nature of the emergency
Stay calm, speak clearly, be prepared to answer
questions, receive instructions and stay on the phone until you
are told to hang up!

each month to check your smoke detectors, and change the batteries
at least once a year!
