päästeüksused

Päästeüksused are emergency response units in Estonia which are responsible for providing emergency medical services, rescue operations, and other forms of humanitarian aid. These units are staffed by trained personnel who are equipped to handle a wide range of emergency situations.

Päästeüksused operate in various regions of Estonia, with each unit serving a specific geographic area. The services provided by these units include emergency medical assistance, fire suppression, and technical rescue operations. In addition to these core services, päästeüksused also participate in search and rescue operations, as well as disaster response efforts.

Each päästeüksus is equipped with a variety of vehicles and equipment, including ambulances, fire trucks, and boats. The specific equipment and vehicles used by each unit may vary depending on the region being served and the types of emergencies that are most likely to occur.

Päästeüksused can be reached through a central emergency number, which is made available to the public in the event of an emergency. Once a call for assistance is received, the päästeüksus that serves the affected area is dispatched to respond to the emergency.

Training and preparedness are key components of the operation of päästeüksused. Personnel undergo regular training and exercise to ensure that they are equipped to handle a wide range of emergency situations. In addition, päästeüksused maintain close relationships with other emergency response agencies, including the police and the fire department, in order to provide a comprehensive response to emergencies.
