Community Paramedic Program

The mission of the Bryan Fire Department Community Paramedic program is to facilitate patient use of, and integration with, social and medical support services in non-emergency situations.

The program is designed to identify and assist patients with life-altering circumstances who may need additional support accessing primary care and community medical resources to stabilize and potentially diminish their reliance on emergency services. Patients are interviewed and assessed to evaluate which community and medical resources may be available to stabilize the patient’s situation. Based on the assessment findings, the Community Paramedic will facilitate the appropriate referrals to community partners for available health care and social services for all aspects of patient care.

The Community Paramedic Program is staffed by an experienced Bryan Fire Department certified paramedic who responds, primarily in a non-emergency mode, in a department vehicle to patients referred by emergency operations crews and other medical or social providers. The Community Paramedic Program is capable of providing Advanced Life Support (ALS) equipment and may arrange transportation for patients to destinations other than the Emergency Department and provide medical exams and treatment for patients in both emergency and non-emergency situations.

If you or someone you know is in need of the services provided by the Community Paramedic Program, you can contact us using our online form.

Fire Apparatus and EMS Standby Services

The Fire Department provides standby services to support public safety during special events, high-risk activities, or hazardous operations. These services may include fire apparatus with trained personnel on-site to respond to fire emergencies, and EMS units staffed with certified paramedics to provide immediate medical care if needed. Standby coverage ensures rapid response capability, enhances life safety, and helps meet regulatory or insurance requirements for events and operations where emergency risks are elevated.

All standby service requests are subject to review and approval by the Fire Department based on availability, risk assessment, and operational priorities. Fees apply and are determined based on the personnel, apparatus, and duration required to cover the event. For more information about these services please call 979-209-5960 Ext 2.
