On November 2, a "fire" suddenly appeared in a high-rise area of Xintiandi Riverside Garden, and the smoke quickly spread to all sides, and residents covered their mouths and noses with wet towels and quickly evacuated from the fire passage. What the hell is going on?
Originally, this was a fire emergency drill held by Zhoujiaqiao Street in conjunction with the Changning District Emergency Bureau, the Changning District Fire Rescue Detachment, and the Zhoujiaqiao Police Station in the Xintiandi Riverside Garden Residential Area, and also officially kicked off the prelude to the series of activities of the "119" Fire Publicity Month in Zhoujiaqiao Street in 2021.
At the scene of the event, the instructors from the publicity service team of the Shanghai Fire Protection Association taught everyone the correct use of various household fire fighting equipment and high-level evacuation and escape skills. Subsequently, residents came forward to experience how to use fire extinguishers correctly, mastered the operation skills of fire extinguishers, and learned how to fold towels, the essentials of covering their mouths and noses, and the posture of bending down when escaping during high-level escape evacuation exercises.
"This is the first time I've personally operated a dry powder fire extinguisher, and it feels very different." "This fire drill allows us to more fully grasp the knowledge of fire escape, self-rescue and mutual rescue, and if we encounter fire escape, we can also calmly deal with it." Residents affirmed the fire drill.
The event also commended the community units that enthusiastically participated in the fire competition, and at the same time carried out fire protection consultation to continuously improve the residents' self-defense and self-help capabilities.
It is understood that next, Zhoujiaqiao Street will adhere to the principle of "moving up and down, internal and external linkage, and diverse forms", carry out in-depth fire safety learning and training in 21 residential areas, and at the same time plan to set up a fire volunteer service team, and increase the training of grass-roots fire fighting staff in business skills, improve residents' fire safety awareness and escape self-help ability.
