The Fall River Fire Department is hiring.

According to a release from the FRFD, the department is using a Civil Service Local Register “to support ongoing operational needs and strengthen daily emergency response staffing.”

The action comes four months after the deadly fire at Gabriel House assisted living facility of July 13. In that incident, the FRFD was strapped for manpower in fighting the blaze, which required the rescue of 53 elderly and infirm residents from the facility in extremely difficult conditions, while simultaneously controlling a fire in a building full of oxygen devices.

Ten residents were killed in the fire and about 30 people were injured, making it the deadliest fire in Massachusetts in 40 years.
