WHAT IS PUBLIC SAFETY?
We get asked this all the time, what is a Public Safety Officer. To help clarify, a Public Safety Officer is both cross trained as a State Certified Police Officer, and as a State Certified Fire fighter, all wrapped into one person. They will handle normal police situations, and then as they come up, Fire scenes. We are also Medical First Responder trained and ready to handle all your needs.
