Rescue unit President Prasit Thongtitcharoen welcomed Dr. Isara Ariyachi-panitch, chief of emergency medicine at the Bangkok hospital August 20.

A fully equipped fire & rescue vehicle is open for inspection.

Isara said Sawang Boriboon was chosen as a case study as its rescuers and paramedics respond to both land and sea accidents. It is well-known for having top-notch training and modern equipment, and operates in a busy tourist-centric environment.

Chulalongkorn’s team studied how Sawang Boriboon treats victims of maritime disasters to gain knowledge to correctly and safely help victims once they reach the emergency room.

The Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan utilizes modern rescue equipment and vehicles.
