CERT Medical Treatment Exercise 10/30

CERT Battalion 2 is hosting a Medical Treatment at the Tarp Exercise in nearby Lincoln Heights on Sunday, October 30. Its a great opportunity to practice what you’ve learned in the CERT classes. Haven’t taken a CERT class? Find one near you!

The Community Emergency Response Team Training teaches you about how a mass casualty incident works.  You triage victims minor, delayed, and immediate and then take them to the appropriate tarp.  But what happens after that?

Join us as we review and practice Medical Treatment at the Tarp.

We’ll team you up with fellow CERT members and simulate several mass casualty events where you and your team have to perform hands-on head-to-toe assessments/reassessments and hands on medical treatment.

EMT, Paramedic, and Nurse coaches will be on hand to work with you through the process of assessment and treatment so that you practice the skills that you learned in class correctly and confidently.

We are looking for victim volunteers, additional coaches, and staff for the event.  Register on eventbrite if you’re interested.
