The Fayette

County Department of Fire and Emergency Services has received Accredited

Agency status with the Commission on Fire Accreditation International

for meeting the criteria established through the CFAI's voluntary self

assessment and accreditation program.

County commissioners

recognized the achievement during last week's meeting.

CFAI met in

Dallas, Texas Aug. 24 to officially accredit the department. Department

director Jack Krakeel was present to accept his department's recognition

for completing the self assessment process. The agency is one of 38 that

have achieved Accredited Agency status with the CFAI.

Dedicated to

helping fire and emergency service agencies throughout the world achieve

excellence through self assessment and accreditation, CFAI also helps

agencies provide continuous quality improvement and enhance service delivery

to their communities.

The CFAI process

is voluntary, and provides an agency with an improvement model to assess

their service delivery and performance internally and then work with a

team of peers from other agencies to evaluate the self assessment that

they have completed.
