Respond to the needs of individuals and care for their injuries after a disaster.
Expanded Mission Statement:
To prepare for and provide CERT Area 28, neighbor residents a broad range of immediate assistance for as much as seventy-two hours following a major earthquake or other disaster. Such assistance includes search and rescue, damage assessment, first aid, shelter, security/comfort in time of need, coordination of resources, and communication within the neighborhood and with the District, Region, and Bountiful City's Office of Emergency Services.
Integral to this is to encourage each household in the neighborhood to implement a family emergency preparedness plan. Such a plan would require that each individual or family provide as much as possible for the food, water, and shelter for an unknown duration, for their own family in the event of a sudden emergency and disaster.
