Fire & Ambulance Services

First responders play a vital role in responding to emergency calls in Whitemarsh Township. In addition to the Whitemarsh Township Police, there are two volunteer fire companies (Barren Hill Volunteer Fire Company and Spring Mill Fire Company No. 1) and one EMS squad (Whitemarsh Community Ambulance Association), comprising of both paid and volunteer personnel expertly trained to provide life-saving help where and when needed. 

What We Do

In addition to putting out fires and aiding the sick or injured, we provide the community:

  • Smoke Alarms: The Fire Marshal's Office and fire companies will evaluate your home for proper smoke alarms and install new ones if needed at no cost.
  • Fire Extinguisher, Fire Safety and Fire Prevention Trainings: The Fire Marshal's Office and fire companies provide employee training to businesses, medical facilities, places of worship and schools.
  • CPR/First Aid Training: Whitemarsh Community Ambulance Association provides training from lay person to medical professional in these lifesaving courses.
  • Rescue operations and urgent communication services in major emergencies
