The Albuquerque Fire Department was originally established in 1900, replacing an earlier volunteer fire department.[7] It was renamed Albuquerque Fire Rescue in 2018 in order to acknowledge the wider scope of duties handled by the department.[8]
AFR has fielded a ambulance that is capable of initiating pre-hospital Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.[9]
