By Firefighter Joe Birch
October 21, 2026

Last evening, the Franklin Park Volunteer Fire Company responded to UPMC Children’s Hospital North for a reported burning smell.

Working alongside the Wexford Volunteer Fire Company and the hospital’s maintenance team, crews searched and checked the facility to identify any potential issues and ensure the area was safe.

We appreciate the cooperation of our fellow firefighters and the hospital maintenance staff in helping investigate the report and ensure the safety of everyone in the facility.

Thank you to all those involved for their teamwork and service to our community.
