The North County Fire Authority responds to emergencies and calls for service with ten fire companies serving its member communities. View its fire statistics at right.

Fires and other Emergencies

As our organization's name implies, we respond to and extinguish hostile fires of all types within the three cities we serve and upon a request for assistance, to other communities as well.

Medical Emergencies/Rescues

The North County Fire Authority's goal is to have a fire company on the scene in four (4) minutes or less 90% of the time. With the strategic location of fire companies and fire stations, fire personnel normally arrive prior to other responders (ambulance etc.) to begin emergency medical care. It is the responsibility of the North County Fire Authority to provide emergency medical services to our customers. On average, medically related responses account for 65 percent of all requests for service. To maintain a standard level of care, each engine company is staffed with paramedics and additional personnel trained and certified as Emergency Medical Technician-1 (EMT), with additional defibrillation certification.
