Accordingly, the Vietnam Red Cross Society in coordination with Hanoi Railway One Member Co., Ltd.

Particularly at Cat Linh station, 2 first aid teams are arranged on the 1st and 2nd floors. Each shift includes 1 doctor, 1-2 Red Cross first aid trainers, 2-3 Red Cross volunteers. The first aid stations operate during peak days of August 27, 29, 30 and September 1 and 2.

The participating forces include trainers, guides, members, Red Cross volunteers who have been trained in first aid; officers, doctors and nurses who are working or retired but still healthy, with the coordination of departments and units under the Central Association and Hanoi Metro. The on-duty teams will directly perform first aid on the spot, and at the same time support and coordinate to take the victim to a medical facility when necessary.
