Gangwon Fire Department Deploys and Operates 'Negative Pressure Ambulances' for Infectious Disease Response
Chuncheon Daeryong 119 · Wonju Usan 119 · Gangneung Ponam 119 Safety Centers
[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] The Gangwon Provincial Fire Headquarters announced on the 4th that "to respond quickly and safely to infectious diseases, three negative pressure ambulances have been deployed and put into operation since the end of last month."
The locations where the negative pressure ambulances have been deployed are Chuncheon Fire Station Daeryong 119 Safety Center, Wonju Fire Station Usan 119 Safety Center, and Gangneung Fire Station Ponam 119 Safety Center in the Yeongdong area.
Negative pressure ambulances maintain a negative pressure environment inside the vehicle, preventing viruses from leaking outside, allowing for safer transport of infectious disease patients. Additionally, they reduce the on-site activity time of the 119 emergency medical team, thereby lessening the workload of paramedics.
