Association for International Exchanges
Beijing is a megalopolis with a population of over 20
million and its number of motor vehicles exceeds 5
million. Natural disasters, traffic accidents, explosions
and infectious diseases occur occasionally. The city’s
emergency response has been listed as one of the top
priorities for such a crowded city.
1. Scientific and technological innovation is a
major support for the development of
humanistic caring.
According to the general deployment of the Beijing
Red Cross Emergency Rescue Center (hereafter
called 999) was established in Sep. 2001. It’s the first
time that the special number 999 was put into use for
medical emergency, emergency rescue and social
relief.
During ten years’ operation, the 999 emergency
system was supervised by the government,
undertaken by Beijing Red Cross, participated by the
general public, and operated independently. The 120
emergency system and 999 jointly devote to the public
health emergency services, they form a new
emergency services pattern of “one city, two systems”,
which contributes to the capacity building of
emergency rescue system in Beijing.
As an emergency rescue organization affiliated to
Beijing Red Cross, 999 hotline holds to Red Cross’
concept of humanitarian public welfare, emphasizes
on the humanitarian concern for vulnerable groups,
demonstrating Red Cross spirit of Humanitarianism,
Fraternity and Devotion.
Nowadays, 999 bears 50% emergency services in
Beijing, with 203 emergency vehicles and 130 first-aid
stations throughout the city. Operating 24h everyday,
365d everyday, each ambulance answers more than 5
calls everyday. In order to meet the optimal demands
of the city’s emergency rescue, 999 adopts high-tech
to make full use of limited resources, providing
unprecedented rescue services both in quantity and
quality for such a megalopolis.
1）Aimed at the aging issue in Beijing, a series of
innovative service projects were introduced for the
convenience of the residents, including cooperating
with high-tech companies to develop a “push-to-talk”
function for landline home cellphones. The “push-totalk” alarm button can send SOS messages
automatically to 999.
2）Cooperated with Jinweijie High-tech Company,999
emergency cell phones were developed. The phone is
tailored to the needs of the elderly, with its large
keyboard, high volume, big characters, and the
function of hearing aid, flashlight, speaking clock, and
radio.
3）Cooperated with Beijing Municipal Committee for
Aging People Services, emergency call device project
were developed. More than 10,000 devices have been
installed for senior citizens with movement difficulties.
4 ） The wrist wireless intelligent sensor is able to
monitor blood pressure and heartbeat for the elderly,
on which there is a 999 “push-to-talk” alarm button.
5）GPS devices can provide effective assistance to
the finding of lost aged citizens.
6 ） Through cooperation with the civil affairs
department, Beijing Red Cross provides emergency
rescue services for over 2 million people aged above
60 years old.
Holding on to humanitarian public welfare concept and
conforming to the needs of public service, Red Cross
believes that technology is not only the needs of the
new age but also the driving force for national
prosperity.
2. Start from me to care for life and people.
Recently, there have been some occurrences of
national disaster, emergencies and assaultive injuries
which have put many lives in danger, especially the
young ones. The public, especially teachers and
students, must equip themselves with the knowledge
and master the skills to protect oneself and help other
when disaster and emergencies occur.
Red Cross has the mission to maintain the lives and
health of people. Family First-aid Manual, in Chinese
and English version, written by Beijing Red Cross,
funded by the government, has been published and
distributed to 6 million families. It’s a major measure
taken by Beijing Municipal Government on the
subjects of building a “People’s Beijing, High-tech
Beijing, Green Beijing”: with the goal of building a
prosperous, civilized, harmonious, livable and healthy
capital.
Family First-aid Manual can be easily understood and
widely used. The manual is designed to meet the
actual needs of families and individuals. To some
extent, it plays an important role in reducing the
accidents, the losses from disasters, and protecting
personal safety and that of others.
Teenagers’ First-aid Manual mainly introduces how to
call the police for help, how to keep oneself safe when
facing danger in a simplest way. There are 4 versions:
low grades in primary school, high grades in primary
school, middle school and university.
Scientific and technological innovation, peopleoriented attitude lay the foundation of the development
of humanistic care and concern. It promoted the
individualization, humanization and diversification of
the services, exhibits the integration of technology into
humanistic service.
Thank you!
Welcome to Beijing!
