by JohnnyZamora

Emergency Response Team save us in a deteriorating condition, when things get out of control. These well-trained units are bestowed with the capability and potential to deal with various tragedies. Almost every nation prepares such a squad, for this specific purpose. These units patrol largely populated areas, VIP localities and main highways of their country, frequently. In this piece of writing, we shall learn some significant facts about an Emergency Response Team or ERT (thats my way of calling it).

Features:
1. The team members are trained to manage both natural, as well as man-made calamities like tornados, typhoons, tsunami, floods, earthquake, fire outbreaks, terrorist attacks, road accidents, radioactive seapage and bomb blasts. Even regional power grid outbreaks are proficiently treated, by the rigorously trained staff.

2. They help in maintaining smooth traffic on highways. They supervise the building of public roads, looking for troublesome areas and disputes.

3. This squad renders its service to several large companies, public venues and national associations. These troops are organized and prepared based on the government policies but sometimes, an ad-hoc squad of workers and volunteers come up with their contributions.

Two Popular Organizations:
1. Red Cross
Red Cross is a world famous rescue party, composed of of medical practitioners, nursing staff, medical experts, engineers, social workers and volunteers. It is an oldest organization that delivers aid and support to the victims of military conflicts, mishaps and natural disasters.

It arranges shelter camps for migrants and patients, where they are provided with medical aid, meals and important equipments. Also, they schedule informative seminars, medical camps and worldwide meetings. The community issues brochures and leaflets in public interest.

2.Certified Emergency Response Teams (C.E.R.T.)
C.E.R.T helpers are the first ones to react to catastrophes and mishaps happening in those remote areas that are generally devoid of rescue operations. Besides providing their precious lifesaving solutions, the team delivers First aid training, fire fighting lessons and safety coaching in the public areas. Some members help fire departments, regional bureaus and nursing homes.

Principles of their Training
-Investigation and assessment of the dangers,

-Organization of patrolling party,

-Spotting preliminary signs and symptoms exhibited by victims,

-Providing medical aid and support,

-Disaster Management,

-Preparing the local masses for controlling chaotic circumstances,

-Gathering bucks for the Relief Fund.

This safety training is offered to all the people who are above eighteen years of age while, the little ones can take part in several relief programs organized by the community. In these workshops, you will be thoroughly coached to respond to a calamity, in a cooperative, composed and professional manner.

Also, in a C.E.R.T camp, you'll be taught to:

-Install fire alerts,

-Distribute pamphlets and teaching materials to teaching institutes,

- Handle issues during local activities

-Conduct CPR and First aid procedures.
