[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Seo Young-seo] Jeonnam Muan Fire Station (Chief Park Won-guk) announced on the 9th that it will implement a 'Comprehensive Heatwave Response Plan' to reduce damage and respond to the summer heatwave.

The 'Comprehensive Heatwave Response Plan' aims to prevent loss of life and property damage caused by heatwaves and minimize inconvenience to residents, as this summer is expected to be hotter than average and have more heatwave days than last year.

The main measures include ▲ securing emergency treatment kits for heatstroke patients and establishing a dispatch system for the 119 ambulance team ▲ operating a standby dispatch team (pump-ambulance) for heatwave response ▲ providing water supply support to livestock farms and vulnerable groups within the scope that does not interfere with firefighting activities ▲ managing the safety of on-site personnel, and proactively responding to heatwave disasters while complying with detailed guidelines according to changes in the COVID-19 situation.

A Muan Fire Station official urged, "When a heatwave advisory is issued, reduce outdoor activities and if symptoms such as headache and dizziness occur, immediately call 119 to receive emergency treatment."
