We are actively looking for individuals ready to give back to their community and help those in need.
REGULAR MEMBERS
All of our members are volunteers and most have a full time job. Members respond to calls only when they are home and available. Our members work in all different career paths and work all different schedules. For example IT, pest control, Customer Service, and police officers.
Not all members are firefighters. We have EMS only members for those that may work in the healthcare or another field and are not interested in firefighting. We also have emergency management agency only members for those who are just starting out and still need to acquire more training or for those who just want to be an extra hand on major incidents or during inclement weather events.
Must meet the following requirements:
- No Felony Convictions
- At Least 16 Years of Age
- Valid Drivers License
We are currently looking to fill the following positions:
- Firefighter
- EMS provider (This includes EMS only members)
- Emergency Management Agency member
- Explorer
It is preferred that you live within the Tolono Fire Protection district area of operations but not required.
VOLUNTEER DUTY SHIFT
Our Volunteer Duty Shift program is an opportunity to contribute to the department in a slightly different manner. Duty Shift members follow all of the same rules and regulations as regular members, but they are scheduled to work in shifts between 2 and 12 hours long (Minimum 288 hours a year). Duty Shift members must stay on site for the duration of their shift and must respond to all calls during that time.
Duty Shift members are volunteer, meaning they are paid by-the-call, not by-the-hour/shift.
More information available upon request.
Requirements:
- Must live within 25 miles of Tolono FPD
- EMS-Only must hold at least an EMR level medical license
- If currently on a Fire Department, provide a letter of recommendation from your Chief Officer.
