Re: Ideas to Implement CERT for Pandemic Response
I have recently signed up for training with the Ohio CERT Program..(Community Emergency Responce Team).. In my area the training is provided by your local fire/ems and they encourage local area groups, neighborhood watchs..etc.. and all people to participate. In case of a disaster, or "overwhelming event", that you would have the ability to help your neighbors and community until officals could arrive. From my understanding they are tweeking it to cover helping your neighborhood in the event of a pandemic.
the below links are for more info... after I have taken the training.. I will report back to you...
various links to OHIO Citizens Corps..etc

This is the link that shows what the class will cover.
