For one week, Comandos de Salvamento of El Salvador provided assistance to the Salvadoran population, who enjoyed the August holidays held from Saturday, July 30, to August 6.

Hundreds of young rescuers, rescue workers, doctors, and nurses assisted at the various activities held both during the Desfile del Correo y Comercio, where a dozen ambulances provided aid to attendees who suffered heat-related problems and various ailments that were treated at the time.

At the Siver Land fairgrounds, Comandos de Salvamento of El Salvador assisted visitors at its first-aid station, where they helped people who suffered some traumas and lacerations, as well as lost children who were returned to their parents.

It should be mentioned that the rescuers carried out several transfers to medical centers due to health problems.

In addition, during the procession of the Transfiguration of the Divino Salvador del Mundo, patron saint of the capital’s residents, Comandos de Salvamento of El Salvador once again had the privilege of carrying the urn for several blocks before it was taken to the Metropolitan Cathedral.

On the beaches of El Salvador’s coastal region, the lifeguards of Comandos de Salvamento of El Salvador provided surveillance for vacationers who came to enjoy the country’s beaches, as well as the tourist centers and resorts.

Traffic accidents were another factor in which teams specialized in vehicle rescue freed drivers who were trapped after collisions; several people were injured and taken to the various medical centers.
