As a former paramedic here in Jacksonville, I’ve always had deep respect for JFRD and the incredible work they do for our community. Their commitment to safety and care inspires the way we serve local families every day through our senior home care services in Jacksonville, Neptune Beach, Atlantic Beach, and Jacksonville Beach. Proud to be part of a community where first responders and caregivers work hand in hand to keep loved ones safe and supported.

This evening, City Council confirmed three members of JFRD’s executive leadership team, joined by family, friends, and fellow first responders.

Chief Percy Golden II, a Jacksonville native and second-generation firefighter, has been confirmed Director/Fire Chief. Since joining JFRD in 2003, he has combined clinical expertise in nursing and emergency management with operational leadership. He now leads more than 1,800 personnel across 68 stations.

Chief Jacob “Jake” Blanton has been confirmed as Deputy Director/Fire Chief. Beginning his career in 1994 as a 911 dispatcher, he has shaped rescue operations for more than three decades, including the development of the Critical Care Paramedic program.

Chief M. Dallas Cooke has been confirmed Division Chief of Rescue. Joining JFRD in 2009, she has risen through the ranks to become the first African American female executive in department history. A firefighter paramedic with a Doctor of Nursing Practice degree, she now leads one of Florida’s largest and most dynamic emergency medical service operations.

Together, with the support of loved ones and the community they serve, these leaders carry forward JFRD’s proud legacy while inspiring the next generation of first responders.

Decreasing coverage of afternoon and evening thunderstorms this weekend will allow heat and humidity to build to dangerous levels. Inland high temperatures will soar to near 100 degrees, with heat index values climbing each day, reaching the 108-114 degree range by Sunday and Monday. Heat Advisories will likely be issued for Saturday across most of our area, and Extreme Heat Watches may be necessary by Sunday and Monday.
