      Paused
      Firefighter Code of Ethics
      The International Association of Fire Fighters, in its Manual of Common Procedure and Related Subjects, contains this code which helps union firefighters uniformly remember their career mission and goals. 

       
      As a firefighter and member of the International Association of Fire Fighters, my fundamental duty is to serve humanity; to safeguard and preserve life and property against the elements of fire and disaster; and maintain a proficiency in the art and science of fire engineering.  
       
      I will uphold the standards of my profession, continually search for new and improved methods and share my knowledge and skills with my contemporaries and descendants.
      I will never allow personal feelings, nor danger to self, deter me from my responsibilities as a firefighter.
      I will at all times, respect the property and rights of all men and women, the laws of my community and my country, and the chosen way of life of my fellow citizens.
      I recognize the badge of my office as a symbol of public faith, and I accept it as a public trust to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of the fire service. I will constantly strive to achieve the objectives and ideals, dedicating myself to my chosen profession--saving of life, fire prevention and fire suppression.
      As a member of the International Association of Fire Fighters, I accept this self-imposed and self-enforced obligation as my responsibility.

       

      The Rome Fire Department proudly protects almost 35,000 people in a 75.7 square mile radius of the City of Rome and surrounding areas. We operate out of two fire stations with 85 paid members.
