COMMUNITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAMS (CERT): If you are interested in becoming involved in or if you are already involved in Animal Emergency Response or a County Animal Response Team (CART), consider the cross training opportunity offered by CERT training. CERT training was originally developed & implemented by the L.A. City Fire Dept., the concept is based on the recognition that catastrophic disasters will leave large numbers of citizens on their own for the period of time it takes the professionally trained rescuers to organize and respond. Training “people to help people” is the goal of this course. Basic lifesaving and life sustaining skills and information will be delivered in several sessions and will include the following topical areas: Disaster Preparedness, Disaster Fire Suppression, Disaster Medical Operations, Light Search and Rescue, Disaster Psychology and Team Organization. You choose the level of participation according to your ability and personal preference. The intent of this training is to prepare you to be able to help yourself, your family and neighbors in a time of emergency or disaster to the best of your ability. If you choose to join a local volunteer Community Emergency Response Team (CERT), there are a variety of assignments available regardless of your physical capabilities. CERT training is frequently offered through local channels -- OEM, community colleges, local fire and EMT training centers. Check with your County OEM to see if there are courses being offered nearby. Mercer County Community College is offering a CERT course this spring The class tuition is provided with funding assistance from the annual federal homeland security grant issued to the County of Mercer for homeland security and preparedness efforts.
