Form a flat handshape with your dominant hand, keeping your fingers straight and together. Bring your hand up to your forehead and place the back of your hand against it, so your palm is facing outward away from you. Tap the back of your hand against your forehead twice.
To sign this, you would sign 'FIREFIGHTER', then 'DRIVE', followed by 'RED' and 'TRUCK'. Emphasize the firefighter sign by clearly tapping the back of your hand against your forehead.
You can express this by signing 'MY SISTER WORK FIREFIGHTER'. Make sure to use your dominant hand for the firefighter sign to keep your overall signing smooth and natural.
Sign 'CALL FIREFIGHTER'. Because this is a command about an emergency, use an urgent, serious facial expression to convey the emotion and context of the situation while signing.

While signing 'FIRE' followed by the 'PERSON' marker makes logical sense and might be understood in context, the standard and most widely accepted ASL sign for firefighter is the helmet shield sign shown here.
Your fingers should be kept tightly together in a flat 'B' handshape. Spreading your fingers changes the handshape and makes the sign look less like the solid helmet shield it is meant to represent.
You should generally use your dominant hand for one-handed signs like this. If you are right-handed, use your right hand to tap your forehead, and if you are left-handed, use your left.
