NEW CPR Class on May 17th 2024 at 6:00 pm in Desert Hills Area
Bystander CPR plays a crucial role in saving lives during medical emergencies such as cardiac arrest. When someone experiences sudden cardiac arrest, immediate intervention is essential to maintain blood flow and oxygenation to vital organs until professional help arrives. Bystander CPR can double or even triple the chances of survival for the victim, significantly increasing their likelihood of a positive outcome. By initiating CPR promptly, bystanders buy precious time for emergency responders to arrive and provide advanced medical care. Furthermore, bystander CPR empowers ordinary individuals to become heroes in their communities, as their quick actions can make a lifesaving difference for someone in distress. We hope to see you there!

July 27th, 2024 CAVE CREEK Car Seat Event
We will be hosting a Car Seat event in the CAVE CREEK area. Be on the look for a flyer with further information.
Car seat safety is paramount for protecting children during travel, as proper installation and usage can significantly reduce the risk of injury or death in the event of a collision. It's essential to select an appropriate car seat based on the child's age, weight, and height, and to ensure that it meets all current safety standards. Proper installation is critical, and parents should carefully follow the manufacturer's instructions and seek assistance from certified technicians if needed. Additionally, children should remain rear-facing for as long as possible, as this position offers the most protection for their fragile necks and spines. Regular inspections and adjustments are necessary to maintain the integrity of the car seat and ensure that it continues to provide maximum safety for the child. By prioritizing car seat safety and staying informed about best practices, parents can help keep their children safe on the road.

Constant supervision is crucial whenever children are near water, whether it's a pool, lake, or bathtub, as accidents can happen in an instant.

By prioritizing water safety education and supervision, we can help prevent tragic accidents and keep our children safe around water.
Daisy Mountain Wildland Division wantS to give you a few tips on Wildland fire prevention
Arizona's scorching summer months not only bring intense heat but also create prime conditions for wildfires and brush fires to ignite and spread rapidly. The combination of high temperatures, low humidity, and dry vegetation increases the fuel potential for wildfires, posing a significant risk to both rural and urban areas. As vegetation dries out under the relentless sun, it becomes highly combustible, making it easier for fires to start and challenging for firefighters to contain them. It's essential for residents to remain vigilant and take proactive measures to mitigate the risk of wildfires during the summer season.
As part of the Daisy Mountain Wildland Division, we understand the importance of safety during the upcoming summer wildfire season. With the season swiftly approaching, it's crucial to prioritize the safety of both yourself and your community. Here are a few essential tips to help keep you and your surroundings safe:
