The Fort Wayne Fire Department plans to be even more effective when responding to emergencies. By July, the department hopes to have nearly 80 firefighters trained in advanced life support on the crews of 18 of its fire engines, Chief Eric Lahey said Tuesday. That would allow the department to have firefighters trained in advanced lifesaving on every fire engine every day so they can start lifesaving care as soon as they arrive at an emergency situation. Lahey and Mayor Tom Henry talked about the fire department’s work to keep people safe during a news conference outside the mayor’s office in Citizens Square, 200 E. Berry St. The fire department currently has six engines operating with an advanced emergency medical technician (EMT) or paramedic on the crew.
