| Popis: | Firefighters are constantly exposed to dangers in disaster sites and they need a plan to safeguard their mental health. There are various programs in place, such as mental and physical health stabilization rooms, to reduce stress and prevent mental illnesses. While these are easily accessible during work, they are lacking in function. To effectively decrease the stress of firefighters, a beam projector set, a speaker, a LED lamp were installed in an independent booth, called a activity healing room. Such rooms were built in fire stations and its effects on stress were analyzed. The indicator was based on measurement of a respiration rate and a heart rate. Additionally, for the qualitative analysis, mental health interviews of firefighters confirmed stress reduction. The results of this study are expected to be used as baseline data to enhance psychological resilience in firefighters and to revitalize their mental and physical health using stabilization rooms. |
