In celebration of fire prevention month and the month of the elderly, the Guyana Fire Service yesterday visited the Palms Geriatric Institution where several hampers were donated to the elderly. Following the handing over of the hampers, a demonstration was conducted where fire prevention officers put out a small fire using a dry chemical fire extinguisher. Several employees and members of the institution were given the opportunity to take part in the exercise. A release from the Guyana Fire Service said that they did an outstanding job of using the extinguisher to put out the fire. (Guyana Fire Service photo)
