Being a firefighter-rescuer

Tragic events sometimes happen in people's lives, and fire is one of the most terrifying. It occurs quickly, and to extinguish it always requires immense efforts and skills. Fire is merciless, and its danger should not be underestimated. That is why this sector needs brave and professional firefighters, because people's lives depend on their actions.

The profession of a firefighter-rescuer is noble and responsible. It requires not only the ability to climb an extending ladder, use a gas mask and navigate through dense smoke, but also the willingness to risk their lives to save others.

The positive outcome of the incident depends on the efficiency and coherence of firefighters’ actions. Love for their work and responsiveness are perhaps the most important traits of any rescuer.

These human qualities and their significance in the modern world were the focus of an interactive lesson, conducted by Örken East Kazakhstan Regional Scientific and Methodological Center for Informatization and Education Development of Education Administration of East Kazakhstan region, jointly with A. E. Aubakirova, a chief expert of Educational Work Group of Fire Extinguishing and Rescue Service of Emergency Situations Department of East Kazakhstan region.

Being a firefighter is a noble mission. If you really want to dedicate yourself to saving lives, then fighting fire and protecting people can be your personal feat. As for personnel selection, first of all, candidates must have good health and excellent physical fitness. They must be able to make decisions quickly, act decisively, be strong, resilient and fearless.
