Blandford Community Emergency Response Team
The Community Emergency Response Team
(CERT) Program educates people about disaster preparedness for hazards that may
impact their area and trains them in basic disaster response skills, such as
fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization, and disaster medical
operations. Using the training learned in the classroom and during exercises,
CERT members can assist others in their neighborhood or workplace following an
event when professional responders are not immediately available to help. CERT
members also are encouraged to support emergency response agencies by taking a
more active role in emergency preparedness projects in their community.
