Ilocos Sur releases emergency directories, first aid booklets
VIGAN CITY, Ilocos Norte - Emergency directories and
first aid booklets were given to residents as quick guides during
disasters.
The booklets contain contact number of government offices
and instructional materials on what to do when accidents or disasters
strike, said Michael Chan, the provincial disaster risk reduction management
council chief.
The emergency guides were distributed as part of the
disaster consciousness month in July.
The provincial government marked the event by a display of
rescue equipment at the capitol grounds, film showing of
Project DINA
and PDRRMC rescue operations, free monitoring of blood pressure, keeping of
first aid station, and opening of registration booth for disaster volunteers.
A lecture on water conservation techniques, food safety,

end the month-long celebration.
Governor Ryan Luis Singson hopes that the activities will
help prepare the residents for any disaster. (Imelda Rivero/MCA/ICR/PIA-1
