Would
You Like to be an Emergency Responder? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Each Woodlands Village has a Community Emergency Response
Team (CERT). The 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.
Held
at The Woodlands Emergency Training Center over an eight-week
period, the Woodlands CERT course is taught by a team
of expert first responders with a full-scale disaster
simulation exercise conducted at graduation. Classes
meet one night a week for three hours with most sessions
involving practical exercises as well as classroom instruction.
For
more information or to register for CERT, please e-mail
Woodlands-CERT@att.net, go to http://www.thewoodlandstownship-tx.gov/index.aspx?nid=590
or call the Montgomery County Office of Emergency Management
at 936-523-3903.
