Core offering

West Metro Fire Rescue is an accredited, all-hazard fire and rescue agency providing fire suppression, emergency medical services, rescue operations, and wildfire response to nearly 300,000 residents across its Colorado service district. The agency also delivers mobile integrated healthcare via its ARM Car program, community risk reduction education, and Fire Marshal/Code Compliance services.

Product overview

West Metro Fire Rescue is a full-service, all-hazard fire and rescue agency operating as a single unified service portfolio rather than a platform-plus-modules architecture. The agency provides core emergency services (fire suppression, emergency medical services, rescue operations), supported by community education programs (Kids Club, Family Fire Muster, CPR training, school programs), a Mobile Integrated Healthcare (MIH/ARM Car) program for in-home patient care, Life Safety Division services (fire marshal, code compliance, permits), wildfire risk mitigation programs, and a Training & Event Center. The organization also maintains a public financial transparency portal.
