  • Abstract This article explores the research on firefighting logistics equipment and systems. Firefighters expend enormous physical energy at disaster sites, often performing tasks in high temperatures while fully equipped during fires, and continuously for several days during earthquakes and typhoons. Taiwan's current rest system, and the quantity and variety of REHAB equipment, are far from adequate. This article, through expert interviews, comparisons of domestic and international systems and equipment, and data collection, suggests ways to improve Taiwan's current REHAB system. The following points are summarized:
    1. Due to severe shortages in manpower, equipment quantity and type in Taiwan, REHAB zones are often established too slowly. Often, when rescue personnel initially evacuate from the fire scene, there are no REHAB zones available, and they can only sit or lie down on the roadside to rest. This is an issue that needs to be taken seriously. Without proper rest and recovery, rescue efficiency may be affected, and even dangers may arise from rescue personnel's physical exhaustion. It is recommended that a dedicated REHAB team be established in the future or that cooperation with non-governmental organizations be carried out to make Taiwan's REHAB system more complete.
    2. Earthquakes and typhoons are very different from fires in nature. Earthquakes and typhoons usually require longer rescue times and have a wider impact. In the interviews, it was mentioned that there was no complete plan for on-site washing and accommodation. For example, washing was done at taps on the roadside or in activity centers, which is extremely unfriendly to rescue workers. It is recommended to sign cooperation agreements with local youth hostels or activity centers to provide rescue workers with a better environment to rest and recover their strength, so as to make subsequent rescue efforts more efficient
    3. Taiwan's current REHAB equipment integration is not high. For example, the United States integrates air conditioning, life monitoring instruments, toilets and sunshades into a single REHAB vehicle. In contrast, most of the equipment in Taiwan is scattered, requiring additional manpower to move and set up the equipment on-site. It is recommended that Taiwan integrate the equipment and establish a unified platform in the future to make the REHAB area more convenient to set up and save a lot of time and manpower.
    4. Taiwan's REHAB equipment is currently too concentrated. Taking New Taipei City as an example, most of the REHAB equipment is concentrated in the special search and rescue team. If a disaster occurs in other more remote areas and REHAB equipment is needed, the distance will be too far, resulting in the initial rescue personnel not having a REHAB zone to use, which will be less timely. It is recommended that the equipment be distributed evenly to various regions. If the quantity and types are insufficient, they can be prioritized for distribution to areas with larger populations and higher workloads, and then gradually supplemented in the future.
