You have made sure that your family is safe following a disaster, and are ready to check on your friends and neighbors in your neighborhood group. Learning the basic principles of on-scene management during the worst situations will maintain the safety of all CERT disaster workers, and also guide the group through assigned activities created to provide effective rescue efforts.
