Seniors and children can be particularly vulnerable during a house fire.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHAT:<\/strong> Offered throughout the year, a smoke alarm blitz helps increase awareness about the life-saving benefits of working smoke alarms and provides firefighters with an opportunity to serve the citizens of their communities. Orange County Fire Rescue is a huge proponent of prevention, with a dedicated team whose efforts are strictly aimed at saving lives through education and outreach, especially for at-risk populations, such as children or seniors. While Saturday\u2019s efforts are focused on seniors living in the community, OCFRD believes that every home should be equipped with a working smoke alarm \u2013 which is tested annually.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the wake of tragedy, Orange County Fire Rescue received numerous requests to provide and help install smoke alarms for residents,\u201d said Orange County Fire Rescue\u2019s Assistant Fire Marshal Inez Pressler. \u201cThis is a service that we are pleased to offer. We do what we can to make sure resources are allocated for those in the community who might otherwise go without.
