Remote Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Training

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Yangcheon-gu (Mayor Kim Soo-young) will operate the "Home Safety Classroom" for families to ensure safe living at home from February to August for 7 months.

Since June last year, the Yangcheon Life Safety Experience Center has created and distributed cyber life safety education content and operated remote CPR training, receiving great responses.

The "Home Safety Classroom" targets families of up to four members with elementary school children residing in Yangcheon-gu and is conducted in real-time online. It consists of 1 hour of safety education, including making disaster preparedness bags and learning how to use fire extinguishers, and 1 hour of first aid education, teaching CPR and how to use an automated external defibrillator, totaling 2 hours.

Safety education uses fire extinguishers and other equipment available at home, while first aid education requires participants to visit the Yangcheon Life Safety Experience Center before the class to borrow equipment such as practice mannequins for hands-on training.

In particular, making disaster preparedness bags allows families to discuss together how to pack emergency food, first aid supplies, and other necessities needed during disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons, and compare with other participating families.

The education is held every Saturday from 10 a.m. for 2 hours, and those wishing to participate can apply by phone at the Yangcheon Life Safety Experience Center at least 7 days before the class.

For more details, please contact the Yangcheon Life Safety Experience Center.

Kim Soo-young, Mayor of Yangcheon-gu, stated, "Although face-to-face education is difficult due to COVID-19, we prepared online education to promote proper responses in emergencies by maintaining safety rules and awareness of safety accidents." He added, "We will continue to raise awareness of the importance of safety education and do our best to create a safe Yangcheon."
