From the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake to the Jiuzhaigou Earthquake last year, we can see that the current rescue force in China mainly consists of three parts. The first part is public security agencies, fire departments, special police and armed police, the People's Liberation Army, reserve forces, militia, etc., are the backbone of every rescue. They have a systematic response mechanism, professional knowledge and equipment, and a well-organized organizational structure that is coordinated by the government.

The second part is professional strength. In addition to medical emergencies, China’s existing professional emergency rescue forces are mostly the emergency rescue forces of the industry or the enterprise, and are scattered among various industries and enterprise units, and are generally small in size. For example, the professional team of the forest fire-fighting personnel stationed in the state-owned forest area: the armed police police. These professional rescue forces are the main force to complete the initial disposal of disasters such as fires, mine disasters, and sea disasters in this industry and enterprises, and they can also be an important supplement to the social emergency rescue backbone forces.

The third part is the civilian emergency organizations and individuals.

From what we can see, China’s main rescue force is still the military. Although there are many rescue organizations or groups among various industries, it is not very convenient to connect and mobilize each other. At this time, civil aid plays a decisive role in crisis management. effect. Therefore, an extremely large crisis has suddenly surfaced. It is not enough for the government alone to control and coordinate. The organization and participation of private forces is necessary. What is the current situation of the survival of non-governmental rescue forces in China?

Hard to find insurance

Most members of the current civil volunteer rescue team are spontaneously assembled by outdoor sports enthusiasts. The rescue power comes from the pursuit of public welfare.

“Rescue is an extended behavior, from hobby to charity action.” ** The rescue team members said.

In 2009 , the ** rescue team dispatched 21 rescues and rescued 73 people in distress . In the process, all players have no insurance coverage. At the end of each signup, there is the same sentence: "Participation in this search and rescue activity is voluntary and bears all consequences."

In the course of liaison with the insurance, the ** rescue team received various uninsured responses: “For those who knowingly have a danger, the behavior of going to the rescue is not to settle claims.”, “For such high-risk occupations like rescue teams Special insurance can be ordered, but it is difficult to order in the name of the individual. Legal chapters are required.".

Insurance protection has always been the biggest shortfall for the development of private rescue teams, and it is also a major barrier for the development of private rescue teams. ** The rescue team Yushu’s insurance can be solved through the Internet, but how will the insurance of the private rescue team face the same problem?

Institutional shackles

At home, the rescue operation of the private rescue team has so far no legal basis, and the rescue team does not have any “fame”. In essence, the private rescue team is a volunteer organization with professional skills.

In the day-to-day mountain rescue operations, the cooperation between civilian rescue teams and the fire brigade is the norm. According to the regulations, the fire brigade is the commander of the rescue work, and the private rescue team is the “beneficial supplement” of the fire brigade. The private rescue team does not have the right to rescue or practise medicine. “The system can only be searched and cannot be saved.” The private rescue team faces the embarrassment.

Shortage of funds

As a voluntary, private rescue team, the lack of funds is a common problem they face.

The reality of many rescue teams is that there is no dedicated rescue vehicle for the shuttle team. When carrying out rescue missions, it is usually the team’s private car that carries the players or uses public transport. In addition to private donations and corporate funding, the cost of rescue operations is entirely borne by the rescue team members. Personal equipment can still be solved by individuals, but professional rescue equipment is always in a state of shortage.

The training team is an indispensable link for the needs of professionals. When the team organizes training, it will basically find some places that do not need to spend money, such as mountains, for example, we use the warehouse of teammates and so on. The expenses incurred in the training are paid by everyone's AA system. In the implementation of rescue missions, all costs incurred are also borne by teammates.

Social misunderstanding

The rescue team's public welfare rescue activities have often been exposed in the media. Some people have teamed up with their thumbs-ups, but some people have voiced doubts. Some people think that they are doing shows, while others think they are narcissistic and think that the rescue team’s public welfare Rescue is false...

For the employees of the company, "participating in the rescue" is not a good reason to ask for leave. In the past search and rescue process, there were no shortages of crew members who were expelled by the unit due to absenteeism.

The establishment and development of a professional team requires a highly unified idea. Any differences in concept and changes will have an impact on the team building.
