The Beverly Hills Firemen's Association paid a visit to both Bridgepoint and Sunrise Assisted Living Homes on Valentines Day. The on-duty firefighters celebrated Valentines Day with the residents by giving out balloons and spreading cheer.
You might have seen the words "Class 1" on our Beverly Hills fire engines. But do you know what that means? And how does that affect the lives and property of the citizens and businesses of Beverly Hills? The City of Beverly Hills Fire Department was surveyed by the Insurance Services Offices (ISO) to determine its Public Protection Classification (PPC) and was awarded a Class 1 rating.
The Beverly Hills Firemen's Association distributed toys to sick children on Christmas Day once again this year. These toys were collected through the Spark of Love Toy Drive which was supported entirely by donations from the public and the Beverly Hills Firemen's Association. They visited both Mattel Children's Hospital at UCLA Medical Center and Cedars Sinai Medical Center on Christmas morning complete with Fire Captain Dean Viana dressed as a Santa Claus. His daughter volunteered her time to dress as an elf.
Our very own Beverly Hills Fire Captain Dean Viana was instrumental in saving the life of a party-goer this past week. Captain Viana and his family were attending a party off-duty to raise toys for the Spark of Love Toy Drive. All parties involved are very thankful for both the quick actions of Captain Viana and also the fast response of the on-duty Beverly Hills Firefighters and Paramedics.
