Comandos de Salvamento de El Salvador, through its Executive Director, Roberto Cruz, is attending meetings with officials from the Ministry of Governance, rescue organizations, representatives of Fosalud, SEM, PNC, Bomberos and the Army, to coordinate coverage areas during the vacation period, which begins on Sunday, April 10, and ends on Sunday, April 17.

The aim is to provide better safety for national and foreign tourists by placing various immediate-response aid stations, as well as rescue teams deployed on the country’s main highways, with personnel specialized in operating hydraulic equipment.

In addition, lifeguards are stationed at the country’s main beaches and tourist centers, with the purpose of providing guidance and preventing deaths by drowning.

Comandos de Salvamento de El Salvador has served the people for more than 60 years during the vacation season, creating a series of recommendations for tourists, as well as deploying its advance teams on the highways. Its 30 national branches are participating.

For that reason, Comandos de Salvamento de El Salvador has answered the call of the Dirección de Protección Civil to seek better coordination for this vacation season, during which it is hoped that deaths and injuries on beaches and highways can be reduced.
