Clear Spring Fire-Rescue, formerly known as East Simpsonville Fire Department, was organized in March of 1981. In July of 2003 the name was officially changed to Clear Spring Fire – Rescue.

We are a combination department, utilizing both career and volunteer personnel. We are located in suburban Greenville County with Simpsonville to our east, Spartanburg County to our west and Laurens County to our southeast.

We have a membership of approximately 35 suppression personnel, this includes 14 career personnel, 12 volunteer personnel, and 7 part-time personnel; additionally we have several civilian positions, an Administrative Assistant, and a Board of Commissioners which is comprised of 5 members elected by the residents of the fire district, and an Auxiliary, a support mechanism consisting of approximately 12 people committed to assisting not only our members, but the community we serve

Our suppression personnel consists of not only firefighters, but some are also certified in various level of emergency medical care from First Responder through Paramedic. Several of our personnel are trained in various rescue disciplines such as: Hazardous Materials, Swift Water, High and Low Angle and Vehicle Extrication.

We not only provide fire protection and rescue services, but also medical first response as a South Carolina DHEC certified EMS first response agency. What this means for you is that we can deliver an Emergency Medical Technician and equipment to your call for EMS assistance rather quickly. The goal is to provide qualified EMS assistance prior to the arrival of the ambulance to help start treatment and stabilize the patient.
