A message from the Peru Fire Department

“To our fellow residents:
 
Our members will continue to be available to respond to emergencies but we are asking you to please follow these precautions during the COVID-19 outbreak.
If you are quarantined (mandatory or self-imposed) in your home due to possible or confirmed COVID-19 exposure, PLEASE notify 911 when you call and advise the dispatcher.
We ask that you place a sign/note on your front door to alert our firefighters to take infection-prevention precautions before entering your home or business.
We need to protect our crews so that they will be able to continue to meet the emergency needs of the community. Elsewhere, there have been entire fire companies quarantined after they have responded to quarantined homes and were not alerted before entering. Those first responders are now unavailable to help anyone for at least 14 days.
 
In our department we cannot afford to have this happen and being VOLUNTEER we do not want to take it home to our families.
 
Wash your hands and be safe.
 
Thank you for your understanding.”
