What if . . . the horrifying trembling lasted seconds but seemed like forever. The electrical lines are down. Homes have toppled. Neighbors have gathered in the streets. Some are trapped or injured in their homes. 911 cannot immediately respond; too busy with other emergencies. What to do? Whether it be an earthquake, hurricane, or other disaster, our capable first responders cannot respond to every emergency in a mass disaster. William (Bill) Hanson of the Civil Defense Agency briefed our club on how a community can be trained as a Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) to properly respond while waiting for the professional first responders.
