What Is Firefighter Wellness?

 Wellness is a comprehensive term that includes all of the following:

• Medical Fitness
• Physical Fitness
• Emotional Fitness
• Access to rehabilitation, when indicated
 
Wellness programs in the fire service are intended to strengthen uniformed personnel so that their mental, physical, and emotional capabilities are resilient enough to withstand the stresses and strains of life and the workplace.
 
A wellness program is not just another program; it is a total commitment to:
• The health, safety and longevity of all uniformed personnel
• The productivity and performance of all fire crews
• The cost effectiveness and welfare of all fire departments
