Robert McMahon, Former Commissioner Putnam County
Emergency Services
REST IN PEACE!
Some information about Robert McMahon
McMahon served as part-time deputy fire coordinator (July 1990 through January 1997), then as part-time fire coordinator (January 1997 through December 1999) and finally as commissioner of emergency services (January 2000 through August 2012).
McMahon served in the Navy and retired from the Fire Department of New York. He is a registered nurse, a former chief and life member of the Lake Carmel Fire Department, a NYS and FEMA certified training instructor and a member of the board of Putnam Hospital Center.
Under his leadership, the emergency services in Putnam were greatly enhanced and eventually evolved into the Bureau of Emergency Services whose efforts have proven so effective during recent major storms in our area. Through programs McMahon initiated which focused on the advanced training and education of EMS personnel, recruitment and volunteer retention soared. Today, the Center is staffed by highly trained, dedicated and professional deputy emergency services coordinators who act as liaisons to local fire and law enforcement departments as well as to emergency management teams and various county agencies.
It was during McMahon’s tenure as commissioner of emergency services that the Putnam County Fire Training Center was expanded to include a three-story multi-purpose burn building training simulator. The Training and Operations Center was constructed allowing Putnam’s 911 Communications Center and the All Hazards Emergency Operations Center to be housed in a single state-of-the-art location.
Working with the county executive’s office as well as the legislature, the office for aging, the sheriff’s department and the health department, McMahon saw to the opening of warming centers in the winter and cooling centers in the summer for the elderly, the ill or those without electricity due to severe weather. Plans for county-wide shelters offering overnight facilities were also developed and generators were installed in many public buildings with federal grant money sought under McMahon’s direction

I rode for CCVAC when I was in High School. I remember we had a trailer (old mobile home) for equipment,
meetings at the library and both van ambulances were parked outside. CCVAC for many years didn't have a
a place to call home.
Hank is a BIG part of why CCVAC now has a headquarters. I remember him spending hours, days, weeks
and months working on the building. All for his community and the members of CCVAC. As mentioned he built
it with his bare hands.
Many times he stopped what he was doing to jump in the ambulance and respond to a call.
Once the call was over right back to work. He did this for no money. He was a Volunteer.
I am happy I had a chance to see him a few months ago at the Paradise in Verplanck.
GOD BLESS YOU HANK.... YOU WILL BE MISSED!

the $25 dollars to display is for the museum has nothing to do with the firehouse that is helping to host the event its actually a fund raiser for the museum which is trying to get established in dutchess county
