Gyeonggi Fire Authority Steps Up Promotion of "119 Ansim Call Enrollment" for Vulnerable Groups Ahead of Lunar New Year

The Gyeonggi Provincial Fire and Disaster Headquarters is stepping up promotion of the "119 Ansim Call" service and the installation of home fire safety equipment ahead of the Lunar New Year.

On the 11th, the provincial Fire and Disaster Headquarters announced plans to focus on guiding the installation of home fire safety equipment and enrollment in the 119 Ansim Call service to protect safety-vulnerable groups such as older adults, persons with disabilities, and people with chronic illnesses, who are particularly at risk of fires and emergencies during the holiday period.

The provincial Fire and Disaster Headquarters plans to actively promote the importance of installing stand-alone fire alarms and fire extinguishers, which can provide early warning of fires during the holiday period and secure evacuation time. It also intends to encourage enrollment in the 119 Ansim Call service, which enables faster, more accurate, and tailored emergency response based on pre-registered medical information and guardian details when an emergency occurs.

Meanwhile, as of last year, the older adult population in the province stood at 2.43 million.
