In 2024, B-Shift remained extremely busy providing all types of services to residents and visitors of Anne Arundel County. B-Shift responded to many calls for service over the year, including routine calls for service and calls that were not as routine but still required Fire Department assistance. Last year, B-Shift responded to several high-profile fires, many of which had significant fire losses, technical long-duration rescue incidents, and, unfortunately, some tragic calls for service. However, most incidents resulted in B-Shift Crews effectively rescuing trapped victims from structure fires and vehicle accidents with very positive outcomes.
Crews also focused on a broad spectrum of training topics, but a significant effort was made on core basic concepts to ensure personnel were proficient. A focus was also placed on ensuring the crews worked as a cohesive unit. A significant effort was also made to mentor personnel rising in their careers, such as officers, paramedics, and pump operators. Phase two Rookie Training also took place, and many hours were dedicated to ensuring the next generation was up to the task of serving the residents of Anne Arundel County.
