In moments of uncertainty, the Bureau of Fire Protection Region 1 stands as a pillar of safety, compassion and unwavering service.

Following the 4.4 magnitude earthquake that struck Pugo, La Union with tremors felt in nearby Sto. Tomas, the BFP Regional Office 1 immediately opened its doors to those in need. Before accommodating the affected individuals, the BFP R1 building was promptly assessed by the designated Safety Officer to ensure its structural integrity and safety for continued use.

Several individuals who were injured, fainted or rendered unconscious during the quake were promptly attended to by the BFP R1 Health Service and Regional Office Personnel, who took swift action to provide first aid and medical assistance.

Among those who required medical attention were 15 students from Sto. Tomas National High School, who were immediately brought to the BFP Regional Office 1 for care and assistance. Out of these, three students were rushed to the nearest hospital for further medical evaluation and treatment.

The dedicated personnel of BFP RHQ 1 ensured that each individual received the care, comfort and support they needed during this distressing event.

The BFP Region 1 remains steadfast — ever ready to respond, to help and to serve.
