How are the battalions divided within MDFR?

The battalions within the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue (MDFR) are structured into three Operations divisions in addition to the airport division. This organizational framework allows for effective management and deployment of resources across various geographic areas and operational needs.

Each Operations division focuses on specific areas of response, which enhances operational efficiency and ensures that the safety and emergency needs of the community are met in a timely manner. Additionally, the presence of the dedicated airport division highlights the unique challenges that arise in firefighting and emergency response in an airport environment, requiring specialized training and equipment.

This division of battalions allows MDFR to effectively respond to various emergencies while ensuring that specialized resources are available for diverse situations, showcasing the department's adaptability and commitment to maintaining high standards of public safety.
