Golder Ranch Fire District

Yesterday, we were honored to have partners from Oro Valley Hospital stop by two stations to recognize our providers for their dedicated work on rapidly treating and transporting two different patients with stroke symptoms. Because of the quick work by these crews, the patients were given the best chance for a quality recovery.

Phones down. Eyes up. Water safety starts with you.

In the thick of it. Side by side.

Lifesaving skills can start in the classroom.

During the 2025–2026 school year, Golder Ranch Fire District completed 19 Skills Labs, reaching 776 students across our community.

We brought this program to schools like BASIS Oro Valley, giving students hands-on experience learning how to respond in emergency situations.

Students practiced:
🩹Applying tourniquets
🧑‍🚒Understanding the importance of protective gear
⚡️Compression-only CPR and AED use
🧯How fire extinguishers work and how fires behave

By bringing these skills into local schools, we’re helping empower the next generation with the confidence to act in an emergency.

Two calls. Two patients. Two lives changed.

Oro Valley Hospital recognized the crews of Stations 373 and 378 C Shift for their rapid assessment and care of two patients experiencing stroke symptoms. Their quick actions helped provide critical treatment faster, giving them the best chance at survival and recovery.

Today, both patients are out of the hospital and back home! 🚑💙
