A helicopter took off from the backyard of the Changchun branch of the Public Security Bureau and completed its first rescue drill Friday morning.

The Jilin Provincial Public Security Bureau covers transportation security management for 342 kilometers of highway.

The helicopter is a result of in-depth cooperation among Shanghai Jinhui General Aviation Co, insurance companies, emergency medical care providers, private institutions and other departments to build a joint initiative with the local emergency rescue system.

The Changchun branch of the Public Security Bureau is now able to provide helicopter rescue service for critically ill patients. (Compiled by Dong Feng)
