Thanks to the donations, the CFA and Brigades Donations Trust is allocating $1.04m to purchase this important life-saving equipment which improves the safety of both firefighters and community members at incidents.
The new 426 defibrillators will bring CFA’s total to more than 1,700 across the state, ensuring every group vehicle has a defibrillator and every brigade has at least one vehicle with a defibrillator.
CFA Chief Officer Jason Heffernan said it’s important our members are prepared if a cardiac emergency occurs.

Nar Nar Goon, Langwarrin, Dromana and Werribee brigades will each receive the three new tools which include a cutter, spreader and hydraulic ram.
The battery-operated tools don’t require an external power source and are waterproof allowing greater access to road crash victims, including in drains and waterways.
The twelve new tools were jointly funded by the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) and CFA, at a total investment of $214,000.
While all CFA brigades respond to motor vehicle accidents, CFA has 21 Road Crash Rescue Principal Providers across the state which have specialised equipment to perform rescues.

It’s a prestigious honour to receive an Australian Fire Service Medal (AFSM). This award exemplifies our values of safety, teamwork, adaptability, integrity, and respect.
There is now less than three weeks left to nominate as part of the 2022 Australia Day Honours. I encourage you to take the time to recognise the exceptional contribution members of our organisation make in protecting lives and property.
There is no higher honour than receiving an Australian Fire Service Medal – only 40 CFA people have received an AFSM since 2016.
The AFSM is an esteemed award that honours those who may have gone above and beyond in their duties or achieved something remarkable in difficult or unusual circumstances.
