Sep 02, 2024

Han River Sacred Heart Hospital (Director Heo Jun) of Hallym University opened and operates a burn hotline (hereinafter referred to as the image hotline)' that can quickly cope with fire accidents at industrial sites on the 21st of last month.

Recently, large-scale fire accidents at industrial sites such as Arisel fire have occurred frequently. In the event of a burn patient due to a fire accident, it is important to provide appropriate first aid at the site to minimize the degree of damage and the aftereffects.

Accordingly, Hallym University Han Kang Sungsim Hospital, a video hospital, has established a video hotline so that medical staff can communicate directly with the site and help them cope effectively. This is expected to enable more accurate first aid and faster hospital transfer of patients.



The video hotline has increased accessibility by using the KakaoTalk channel, and by pressing the 'Hotline Emergency Call' button in the chat window, it is connected to emergency room medical staff and medical cooperation centers that can quickly respond to video disasters. Hotline emergency calls are open 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays, and users can receive services such as ▲ first aid manual for burn patients ▲ hospital ambulance priority dispatch ▲ power and outpatient appointment support. In addition, information such as how to prevent burns can be obtained through a video newsletter.

Hallym University Han River Sungsim Hospital held a briefing session on the 21st of last month, the first day of the video hotline construction, visiting a construction safety consultative body belonging to 10 industries in Yeongdeungpo-gu, including POSCO E&C and SK Eco Plant. Officials from the consultative body who attended the briefing session decided to use the hotline system to prevent video accidents and enable rapid on-site response.



The safety manager of Hanlim University Kang Sungsim Hospital, who built the system, opened a hotline to minimize the severity of patients by helping them respond to the initial situation on the spot as a burn hospital""We hope that patients can be treated quickly and safely through the hotline, and Hallym University Han Kang Sungsim Hospital will continue to fulfill its social responsibilities as a burn hospital."."
