Pensioners are one of the most important population categories that are under the close attention of the Ministry of Emergency Situations (MES).
Pensioners are one of the most important population categories that are under the close attention of the MES. To involve them in safety issues, rescuers use various forms of work, trying to reach every elderly person and engage them in the large-scale republican campaign "With Care for the Safety of the Small Motherland".
The goal of the campaign is to prevent fires due to careless handling of fire and the death of elderly people in them. The campaign will run from September 16 to October 4. As part of the campaign, meetings with rural residents are planned, where rescuers will once again remind them of safety rules and focus on the causes of emergencies. In addition, rescuers will work along the routes of mobile shops through the "Safety Mobile Shop" project, where training grounds will be set up at the stops of the mobile shops. Thus, residents of even the most remote corners will not be left aside and will be able to participate in the events organised by rescuers.
In rural settlements, thematic "Safety Fairs" will be held in open areas, where rescuers have prepared many "activation zones": "Fire Shield", "Violations in the House", "How a Fire Extinguisher Works", "Bugs and Spiders", "Stoves and Benches", "Safe Electrician", and many others.
This is just a small list of the events that rescuers will hold with elderly citizens as part of the "With Care for the Safety of the Small Motherland" campaign.
Participate in the campaign, because there is no such thing as too much safety!
Rescuers strongly urge residents of the district to take all necessary measures to bring their households into a fire-safe condition. Be careful when handling fire, do not smoke in residential areas, observe safety rules when operating heating and electrical equipment, and do not leave children unattended.
