About the Department

The Wheaton Volunteer Rescue Squad is a corps of volunteers who provide basic life support, advanced life support, and fire and rescue service to Wheaton and the surrounding community. WVRS has provided continuous service every hour of every day since since 1955. Over the past 60 years we have responded to hundreds of thousands of calls for help from the public. We responded to over 9,000 emergency 9-1-1 calls in 2015 utilizing highly trained personnel who volunteered over 69,000 hours of service.

Each member volunteers his or her own time one night a week from 6:00 pm until 6:00 am, spending the night at the station, and 24 hours every fourth weekend. WVRS is staffed entirely by volunteers at all times except for weekdays, 7:00 am until 5:00 pm, when staffing is provided by both volunteers and career staff from the Montgomery County Department of Fire and Rescue Services. The Wheaton Volunteer Rescue Squad provides service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year at no charge to those served.
