BCCRS Receives Federal Grant for COVID-19 Equipment and Preparedness

July 18, 2020—The Bethesda-Chevy Chase Rescue Squad has received $45,780 in funding under the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Assistance to Firefighters – COVID-19 Supplemental program.  The funding will be used to procure personnel protective equipment and other supplies to bolster the Squad’s COVID-19 preparedness and response.

 

BCCRS has responded to hundreds of actual or suspected COVID-19 calls in the last several months and provided more than 1,400 hours of “surge” staffing with volunteer personnel – above and beyond the Squad’s normal staffing levels – during the weeks when Montgomery County was experiencing the highest rate of COVID-19 calls.

 

Please visit our website – www.bccrs.org – for more information about how BCCRS is responding to the current pandemic and how residents and local organizations can support their community rescue squad.
