The Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program educates volunteers about disaster preparedness and trains them in basic disaster response skills. These skills include fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations. Using this training, CERT members can assist others in their neighborhood or workplace following an event when professional responders are not immediately available to help.
Whether it's tornadoes, flooding, winter storms or an act of terrorism, emergencies can occur quickly and without warning. although we cannot prevent emergencies, we can prepare for them. Teachers and administrators need to take special care as they are responsible for the students in their care.
