Edwardsville Fire Department - Station 1

We came here today to learn how to install our car seat (my husband and I are expecting our first) and it was such a fantastic and educational experience!!!

Putting a car seat in might be easy, but they never made us feel ridiculous for coming for help and they were so patient with our questions!!

Thank you so much for everything!

I love the fire stations

I am new to the area, with no family nearby, and live on the 2nd floor with no elevator. I fell. The painful swelling got worse and worse, to the size of a small cantaloupe. I feared I broke my leg. At nearly midnight I could find no services to help me. I called the campus location fire department, that I pass every day, for advise. The paramedics Scott and Cory and the officer (who’s name I can’t recall, Officer Letter?) got me down the stairs and to the hospital safely and quickly. They made me feel comfortable and said, “next time, don’t be afraid to call right away.” Thank you, Edwardsville!
