Jeju Fire Station Operates 'Visiting Fire Safety Experience Booth'

[Jeju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Jeongpil] Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Jeju Fire Station (Chief Ko Jae-woo) announced on the 14th that it operated a ‘Visiting Fire Safety Experience Booth’ for vulnerable residents living in Ara Jugong Apartments.

This education was promoted to provide safety education opportunities for vulnerable elderly groups who are at risk of multiple casualties in case of fire or other accidents, and to expand experiential education to create a safe living space.

The main educational contents included experiencing initial response methods for different accident situations through training on how to use fire extinguishers, indoor fire hydrants, fire evacuation drills, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and automated external defibrillator (AED) usage.

Chief Ko Jae-woo said, “In public rental apartments densely inhabited by vulnerable evacuees, there are many elderly people with mobility difficulties, which can lead to significant casualties in case of disasters,” and added, “We are fostering ‘Fire Safety Leaders for Multi-family Housing’ through focused fire safety education for apartment managers and related personnel.”

He continued, “For fire-vulnerable residents, we will repeatedly conduct experiential safety education that allows them to understand the core points and acquire behavioral guidelines.”

For applications for visiting fire safety education, please contact the Prevention and Safety Division of Jeju Fire Station.
