Welcome to the Official Website of the Ronkonkoma Fire Department
To our fellow residents:
The Ronkonkoma Fire Department would like to wish you and your families well during the COVID-19 virus situation.
We are 100% committed to assist in protecting our community while maintaining our, as well as your safety. In doing so we ask that you take a few precautions in helping us do that.
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 also ask that you place a sign/note on your front door to alert our first responders to take infection prevention precautions before entering your home or business.
We want 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 & rescue 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.
We will continue to serve the residents of our community without delay and with the utmost professionalism. We thank you for your help and understanding during this time.
