Gwangyang Fire Station Conducts Unscripted Virtual Fire Drills at Campsites and Other Locations
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Heo Seon-sik] Jeonnam Gwangyang Fire Station (Chief Choi Hyun-kyung) announced on the 27th that it conducted an unscripted virtual fire drill on the 26th to strengthen forest fire response capabilities at campgrounds and other areas.
Four fire trucks and about 10 firefighters and related personnel participated in this drill (conducted with minimal in-person attendance due to COVID-19). The drill simulated a fire caused by negligence at a glamping site, with a hypothetical scenario of the fire spreading to the nearby mountain.
The training included ▲ radio communication drills during long-distance dispatch ▲ identification of optimal routes and nearby firefighting water facilities ▲ thorough prevention of fire spread due to structural vulnerabilities of the glamping site ▲ life rescue, search, and transport measures ▲ evacuation education for personnel in case of fire.
