The Congressional Fire Services Institute is accepting applications for the CFSI/Masimo Excellence in Fire Service-Based EMS Award. The award recognizes fire departments in career and volunteer/combination categories for implementing innovations in emergency medical services.

Fire departments across the country are developing new and innovative approaches to delivering emergency medical care. Both CFSI and Masimo want to recognize these departments and share their innovations with other departments seeking new solutions for delivering emergency medical services in their own communities.

CFSI and Masimo will honor the recipients at the 32nd Annual National Fire and Emergency Services Dinner on April 30, 2020 in Washington, DC. Approximately 1,500 fire and emergency services officials across the nation are expected to attend the annual program that pays tribute to the one million men and women of our nation’s fire and emergency services.  In addition, CFSI and Masimo will conduct separate presentations for the recipients in their respective communities to recognize all individuals and organizations that contributed to the success of the programs.

This is a department award – individuals are not eligible.  The deadline for applying is January 17, 2020. Please contact CFSI at 202-371-1277 if you have any questions. Also, please provide detailed responses to the questions.
