Congratulations to two of our newest members!

Cedar Area Fire and Rescue is proud to announce that two of our dedicated members, Nolan and Cole, have officially completed their Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) course.

Their commitment to achieving this qualification ensures that we can continue to provide the highest level of pre-hospital care to the residents and visitors of the Cedar Area.

We look forward to their contributions as they put their training into action!

Today, with their greater density yet lesser cost, we use lithium-ion batteries as the main power source for smartphones, laptops, tablets, medical devices, power tools, drones, scooters, bikes, and electric cars. However, if lithium batteries are not stored properly with the right compliance and handling, they not only have less longevity but can also become extremely dangerous.

Use Cables That Came with the Products
Anything with a lithium-ion battery—phones, laptops, e-bikes, power tools—can become a fire hazard if it’s not charged safely. Always use the charger that came with the device or one approved by the manufacturer. If the cord only works when you bend it just right, it’s time to replace it.

This year the theme is “Charge Into Fire Safety: Lithium Ion Batteries In Your Home”. Throughout this week we hope to bring awareness and education about this common household item.
Lithium-ion batteries store a lot of energy in a small place. These batteries can overheat, start a fire, or explode if overcharged or damaged. By learning how to BUY, CHARGE, and RECYCLE these batteries safely, you can help prevent a fire in your home.
This quick reference guide can help assist you with these devices.
