I'll do it, I have some experience of mass disaster training here at UC and
University Hospital. (I've taken part in several exercises).
I work with trauma surgeons, EMT's and paramedics too, so they could share
their tips.

Hi,
There is an organization called CERT at http://www.citizencorps.gov/cert/
which trains people for neighborhood disasters. Some of us may want to go
through training so that we're ready for the next ice storm, tornado,
blackout, etc. To me this makes as much sense as block watch groups to
prevent crime and the like. It is possible to get basic training in basic
disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team
organization, and disaster medical operations. The contact in Ohio is:

FEMA also has a site for disaster readiness at
http://www.fema.gov/areyouready/. They also have a disaster supplies
checklist at http://www.fema.gov/areyouready/appendix_b.shtm.
Maybe we should get University Heights and "Middle Riddle" ready for
whatever before whatever happens.
Thanks,
Sharlotte Donnelly
