We will hold true to the values of honor, loyalty, pride, and courage while pursuing the ideals of compassion, respect, efficiency and innovation to accomplish our mission.
Emergency Services: Dedicated to Protecting Lives and Property
The District responds to all emergency calls from residents and businesses. While fire suppression and medical emergency response account for most of Lone Jack's call volume, the crews also respond to any and every type of emergency (including a call related to a snake in the home).
Every member of the District's crew holds both emergency medical response and fire emergency certifications and credentials. Lone Jack requires each new crew member to hold Firefighter certifications (as established by the International Fire Services Accreditation Congress), Hazardous Materials Awareness and Operations certification, and Missouri EMT, AEMT, or Paramedic licensure.
Free Community Resources
Education ignites awareness. Lone Jack is committed to providing classes and other opportunities to District residents, ensuring they feel empowered, know what to do during an emergency, and stay safe. Lone Jack offers free smoke alarm installation, free firehouse tours, and numerous public education opportunities. The District also sponsors the 911 Address Sign program, which aims to increase emergency response time by establishing a simplistic number sign for each home in the District.
