    It is essentially scenario-oriented practical tool content. Its core attribute is the public service attribute. The guide for specific professional positions also has the rigid attribute of technical specifications.

    Some people may confuse it with safety science popularization content. In fact, the orientation of the two is quite different - the core of science popularization is to let you "understand the truth behind it", while the core of the emergency guide is to let you "don't think about it in an emergency, just follow it." Take the fire emergency guide for high-rise office buildings issued to all companies in the park where our company is located a while ago. The entire article does not even mention the basic common sense of "the three elements of a fire". Instead, it just explains the corresponding actions for different floors and different fire scenarios: Escape in case of fire below the 10th floor. If there is no smoke in the passage, cover your mouth and nose and run down. If the escape route is blocked above the 15th floor, go back to the house and close the doors and windows tightly, call the fire phone to report your location and wait for rescue. Even when you hide, you must lean against the outer wall of the bathroom, which is a location that is easy to be found by search and rescue. It is clearly written that you can just pick it up and move if something happens.

    Of course, many people in the content circle would classify general emergency guides for the general public into the subcategory of public science. This statement is not unreasonable. For example, emergency guides for preventing stampedes and preventing heatstroke distributed to primary and secondary school students also play a role in popularizing safety knowledge to children. However, as long as it is a qualified emergency guide, it must put "implementable operations" at the front, and the principle content can be placed in the corners at most as supplementary information. This is the core dividing point between it and general science popularization.

    I used to make a leaflet for emergency treatment of gas leaks for elderly people living alone in the street. At the beginning, I specially added a small popular science section about the critical value of gas explosion. However, when I was doing user research, an aunt said that she was confused when she really smelled the smell of gas. She didn't want to read this, and she wanted to know whether to close the valve or open the window first. When I went back, I deleted all the popular science content and replaced it with the three-step movements marked in size 3 bold font. I also specially added cartoon illustrations, just in case the old man couldn't read the words clearly when he panicked.

    To put it bluntly, the emergency response guide is like an emergency rescue pill that you carry in your bag. No one will bother to look at it. But when it comes to using it, the simpler and more direct it is and the faster it can be implemented, the more qualified it is.
