How Can We Help You?
Specialty Teams
In recent years, many fire departments have taken on the additional responsibilities of providing assistance in mitigating emergencies in areas not traditionally serviced by fire service personnel. These emergencies are hazardous materials response, confined space and technical rescue, and fire cause & origin investigation.
The personnel with these abilities on the Hinsdale Fire Department have joined forces with the members of our mutual aid association to provide a strong background in training, response, mitigation, and resources that is cost prohibitive for individual departments. At the present time, the fire department participates in the following regional response programs:
Hazardous Materials Team |
Technical Rescue Team |
Fire Investigation Team |
DuPage County Fire Investigation Task Force |
FF/PM Bob Patitucci (Technician Level B) |
FF/PM Jasmeet Sanghera |

FF/PM Pat Schaberg |
Lt. Tom McCarthy |
FF/PM Mike Wilson (Technician Level B) |
FF/PM Kevin Baker |
||
Chief John Giannelli (Technician Level B) |

All of these response teams conduct their training on a monthly basis to remain proficient in these areas of expertise.
