In several places in Västerbotten, the rescue service assisted with home care and elderly care during Saturday.

- It was probably worst to get to the station this morning, says Fredrik Persson at the rescue service in Vännäs.

SVT met the firefighters when they were in the process of driving out supper - see more in the clip above.
