FIRST AID, EQUIPMENTS, LIFELINES

Practising CPR

Then we looked at the disaster equipments and had a chance to try them by our own. Here we practiced with fire extinguishers, learning how to use electrical generator (in case no electricity in a disaster events). We also had been introduced about stocks that necessary to be prepared in our everyday life, in case an earthquake happened. There were canned foods that lasting for few years (there were canned noodles, breads, cakes, and rice were available), canned drinks and water.
