On March 22nd, 2026, Telecommunicator Kate Morris received a 911 call for a patient who was in cardiac arrest. Kate used Emergency Medical Dispatch protocols to administer CPR instructions to the caller, who performed quality CPR until responders arrived on scene. After responders arrived on scene, the patient experienced return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and was transported to the hospital.

Today, Kate was presented with a Life Saver Award and attached a leaf to the Communications Center’s Tree of Life in recognition of her life-saving instructions.

Big thanks to Springdale High School for allowing us to use their facilities for this year’s workout. Never forget the reason behind the Murph and the sacrifices made by so many.

Yesterday, we had the privilege of presenting a Letter of Commendation to CJ McCasland of the Bentonville Fire Department in recognition of his decisive and life-saving actions at the scene of a motor vehicle accident on Interstate 49 involving a trapped victim.

Prior to the arrival of emergency personnel, CJ quickly took command of the situation by directing bystanders in the use of fire extinguishers and water bottles to prevent the vehicle from igniting. His calm leadership, quick thinking, and selfless actions played a critical role in protecting the victim involved until responding units arrived on scene.

We are so incredibly thankful for Chief Jackson’s leadership with getting our department pointed in the right direction so many years ago!

In 1964, Mickey Jackson, just 23 years old at the time, was selected to serve as Springdale's first full-time paid fire chief.
