Ways to Communicate in Case of Emergency

Written by iManila Dev on September 29, 2017. Posted in News and Updates

When emergency strikes, depending on the gravity of the situation, communication becomes a vital piece of survival. It’s the fine line between being saved or sadly, perishing. That’s why the need to communicate at all costs can’t be stressed well enough.

As always, maintaining a clear state of mind during an emergency is still the number one thing everyone should do. The next thing is to communicate.

Here are ways to communicate in the event of an emergency. Most of these require preparation early on, so take note of these tips.

1. Find out the kind of landline service that you use.

Mind you that newer telephone services run on electricity. Once power source has been cut out, you won’t be able to communicate through these. If you’re using the older, traditional phones, on the other hand, you may be able to utilize these phones even if the power is out. However, take note that this is only for traditional phones that have cords. Cordless phones may still require electricity to work. That’s why it is highly advised to know what kind of telephone service you are using.

2. Keep your mobile phones charged.

Wherever you go, always bring a charger or a power bank to prevent your phone from dying. If you can, keep an emergency phone in your car. Make sure it is within your access so that you can reach for it easily when the need arises.

3. Invest on broadcasters.

If you can afford it, you may want to buy broadcasters or portable digital televisions. These gadgets are an ideal source of news in case of emergencies. You may want to buy one that is battery-operated.

4. Know who to call.

Keep a set of numbers that you can call when a -disaster occurs. Include AirGurus on your list of emergency contact. AirGurus is Philippines’ number one air ambulance provider and helicopter. We operate 24/7 to your avail.

5. Allow a 10-second interval between calls.

Calling a certain number for multiple succeeding times can cause increased network congestion. If your first attempt at a call wasn’t successful, call again after 10 seconds or better yet, a full minute.

When emergencies occur, always find a way to communicate. Communication is one of the more important aspects of living, even without the occurrence emergence The presence of one just stresses the significance of being able to communicate.

Written by iManila Dev on April 24, 2017. Posted in News and Updates

Airgurus deploys choppers to Tacloban.  The devastation left after Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) is still staggering. Many of the affected areas have still not yet started working at that time. The government was on rebuilding their communities as there is still a need to fill the most basic commodities.  Basic needs such as electricity, shelter, clean water, medicine, basic goods, etc.

Airgurus went out of their way to helping in any way they can. As the country’s trusted leader in medical air transportation Airgurus does their part in giving aid by deploying choppers for rescue operations.

These assist the multi-national force sending a steady stream of relief supplies to devastated areas in and around the city of Tacloban. Airgurus also provides sling load and lifting operations to Tacloban since much of the infrastructure is torn apart. Major roads are no longer accessible making air transport, in some cases, the only possible way to reach the most devastated areas. Daily loading and flight operations will continue the steady stream of relief supplies to the displaced locals into the months ahead. Todate, more than 630,000 pounds of relief aid has been distributed.
