20. Fire escape drills
Since the 6.11 state and city theater fire, gradually, from the state and city, the whole country has risen to learn fire protection.
Even the uncles and aunts, who used to be the most difficult to do their jobs, began to take the firefighters and community workers who came to the door to admonish, and some even prepared small mazas and notebooks, put on reading glasses, and took as many notes as possible.
"As we all know, our fire protection policy is to focus on prevention and combine prevention and elimination. So this prevention is the main thing, that is, in our daily life and work, we must always pay attention to the safety hazards around us. Only in this way can accidents be minimized and everyone will be safe. A firefighter earnestly preached on the stage, "In the past few days, our staff will take everyone to understand the various fire safety hazards that may exist in our daily life, and will also tell you the solutions to the hidden dangers. β
The people below, young and old, all sat upright and listened carefully, like obedient schoolchildren in the school. Occasionally, one or two people can't sit still and look around and want to desert, and they will be stared at by the people around them, honestly.
"As you know, our fire alarm number isβ" The person speaking on the stage paused, looking at the people present.
Didn't disappoint him either, "119! β
"Okay, that's right, so what do we need to explain when we call the fire alarm?"
"We have to tell the address of the fire, the size of the fire, whether there are people trapped, tell our names and contact information, easy to contact, after making a call, remember to answer at the intersection, in order to quickly arrive at the rescue site."
"I believe that everyone has also seen the ground marked on the ground in the community, streets and other places - fire passage, please do not occupy such words, I don't need to say more, I believe you know the importance of this, right? Is there anything you here don't understand? β
"I understand, I know."
"Understood."
The people below responded.
"It's good that everyone understands, and I'm sure you've seen similar cases of delaying rescue because of blocking fire escapes. At the rescue scene, we have to race against time and time. β
β¦β¦
"Now everyone knows the theoretical knowledge, and should all remember, we will hold two fire escape drills in the near future, I hope that all residents will actively cooperate, and the specific time will be notified separately."
"Now it's up to our firefighters to show you how to use various firefighting equipment. Everyone is watching well. β
"Usually the home should also be equipped with suitable fire-fighting equipment, we are prepared."
Firefighters come to the scene and explain the operation methods and steps, while slowing down the movements of their hands to make sure everyone can understand.
Then have someone come up and try to do it.
I memorized the operation steps just now, although I was not proficient and very unfamiliar after getting started, but I also found the key step by step. Everyone was engaged in a learning atmosphere in which they actively participated in the proper use of firefighting equipment.
After the first fire drill a few days later, the fire crew gave a summary to everyone. First of all, he affirmed everyone's active cooperation, basically obeyed the command during the exercise, and did not run around, and then pointed out the existing shortcomings and proposed ways to improve them.
By the time of the second exercise, it was obvious that there had been a lot of improvement.
After receiving the evacuation instructions, the old and young in the community immediately ran out of the house, and ran forward along the safe passage in an orderly manner.
By the time everyone had reached a safe evacuation place, it took much less time than last time.
Then some people began to step forward and pick up the fire-fighting equipment and props placed on the ground according to the steps of "lifting, pulling, aiming, pressing, and sweeping", and made the correct action of extinguishing the fire by S-shaped strafing at the root of the flame.
Because it is a national propaganda of fire fighting, it is not realistic for everyone to be equipped with a fire extinguisher to practice, so we have prepared as many fire extinguishing props as possible in equal proportions for everyone to practice.
Despite this, everyone is enthusiastic and has learned to be their own, and isn't it fragrant to take their own life and safety into their own hands?
Usually sometimes a few elderly people who love to be careful are studying hard, for fear that they will fall behind too much.
There are a few elderly people who are afraid that they have a bad memory, and they will forget what they have learned, and they will let their children and grandchildren "make up lessons" for themselves after they go back, especially those who often cook at home, and paste the precautions for the correct use of natural gas and electricity on the kitchen wall to remind themselves from time to time.
Basically every household has installed an indoor smoke alarm, when people are sleeping in the dead of night, if there is any sudden accident, it will call the police in time to remind the residents.
The annual inspection of fire extinguishers and other fire-fighting equipment has been strengthened.
The electric vehicles in the corridor have also been placed downstairs under various policy compulsory measures, and safe charging piles have also been configured.
Accidents involving the explosion and burning of electric vehicle batteries are not uncommon, and parking in the corridor is equivalent to putting a time bomb in front of your own and your neighbors' homes, harming others and yourself.
The stuff that used to be full of things in the safe passage has also been sorted out.
Everyone has also begun to develop the habit of using electricity safely and turning off electricity.
Even people who always like to play with fireworks during the New Year's holidays are also much more cautious, and only have a small time in the designated area.
Although some people still feel that this is making a big fuss and wasting time, change is a gradual process, starting little by little, driven by the people around you, and slowly achieving results.
No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles.
Later, the theater building, which was destroyed by fire, was bulldozed, but a sculpture was built on the site β based on the burned building.
It reads: Pay attention to fire protection, everyone is responsible! Commemorate the compatriots who died in the 6.11 fire accident and the firefighters who died!
Cherish life, pay attention to fire fighting, and the alarm bell rings!
