Major emergencies can and do happen. If an emergency or disaster happens in your neighborhood, are you prepared to help yourself, your family or your neighbors?
When disasters strike, people often pull together to help save lives. Many, however, are not properly trained in emergency response. Taking the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training can help teach you necessary skills.
You will learn: Disaster Preparedness, Fire Safety & Utility Controls, Disaster Medical Operations, Light Search & Rescue Operations, CERT Organization, Disaster Psychology, Terrorism and CERT, Disaster Simulation
Classes will be held in the Douglas County Emergency Operations Center Starting August 6, 2024 and will be held each Tuesday and Thursday night from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. To register email dcema@douglascountyga.gov.
